We get the following warnings in various ARCH=powerpc builds:
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
WARNING: "global_dbcr0" [arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in] is COMMON symbol
Switch to moving local symbols (except mmu_hash_lock which is global) and
space directive instead.
