From: Abner Chang <abner.ch...@amd.com> BZ #1766
Remove the entire 5.4.2.2 section. We are not allowed to use upper-case STATIC in the source file now. Just follow C standard and use the lower-case 'static'. Leave the macro "#deifne STATIC static" there without removing it to keep the backward compatable.
