commit 459e3a21535ae3c7a9a123650e54f5c882b8fcbf upstream. The pvlock_page and hvclock_page variables are (as the name implies) addresses to pages, created by the linker script. But we declared them as just "extern u8" variables, which _works_, but now that gcc does some more bounds checking, it causes warnings like warning: array subscript 1 is outside array bounds of ‘u8[1]’ when we then access more than one byte from those variables. Fix this by simply making the declaration of the variables match reality, which makes the compiler happy too.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
