[RFC/PATCH] Fixup WARNINGs related to COMMON symbol

[Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>]

We now get the following warnings:

WARNING: "ee_restarts" [arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in] is COMMON symbol
WARNING: "fee_restarts" [arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in] is COMMON symbol
WARNING: "htab_hash_searches" [arch/powerpc/mm/built-in] is COMMON symbol
WARNING: "next_slot" [arch/powerpc/mm/built-in] is COMMON symbol
WARNING: "mmu_hash_lock" [arch/powerpc/mm/built-in] is COMMON symbol
WARNING: "primary_pteg_full" [arch/powerpc/mm/built-in] is COMMON symbol

because these symbols are defined as .comm.  It is not clear if there is
any reason for these sybmols to be .comm.  Only mmu_hash_lock is global
and needed outside of the file scope its defined in.

If this patch looks good, I'll spin a version for arch/ppc and repost.
