PATCH 1/1 Fix in printk.c

c99 specifies

<snip>
[#7] If, within a translation unit, the same identifier
appears with both internal and external linkage, the
behavior is undefined.
</snip>

"early_printk" has this type of behaviour in printk.c. Attached/appended patch removes the dependency on the behaviour of the compiler.

thanks,
suresh
