Do you mean something like:
DECLARE_BITMAP(__hash_table, 16 * 32);
u16 *hash_table = (u16 *)__hash_table;

drivers/net/ethernet/dec/tulip/tulip_core.c:

static void build_setup_frame_hash(u16 *setup_frm, struct net_device *dev)
{
struct tulip_private *tp = netdev_priv(dev);
u16 hash_table[32];
...
}

drivers/net/ethernet/dec/tulip/de2104x.c:

static void build_setup_frame_hash(u16 *setup_frm, struct net_device *dev)
{
struct de_private *de = netdev_priv(dev);
u16 hash_table[32];
...
}
