From: Andi Kleen <a...@linux.intel.com>

The gcc 4.7 LTO with -fno-toplevel-reorder sometimes drops data
variables. These show up as undefined symbols at link time.
As a workaround just make a few where it happened visible for now.

There isl nothing wrong with this driver, just a toolchain problem.
