Subject[PATCH v1] printk: Declare log_wait as external variable
Date
Static analyzer is not happy:

kernel/printk/printk.c:421:1: warning: symbol 'log_wait' was not declared. Should it be static?

This is due to usage of log_wait in the other module without announcing
its declaration to the world. I wasn't able to dug into deep history of
reasons why it is so, and thus decide to make less invasive change, i.e.
declaring log_wait as external variable to make static analyzer happy.

Note the above is done if and only if the CONFIG_PROC_FS is enabled,
otherwise we fallback to static variable.
