This gets me the following from gcc version 7.5.0:

kernel/rcu/refscale.c:162:1: error: duplicate ‘static’
 static DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU(srcu_refctl_scale);
 ^~~~~~

Is the concern the __srcu_struct_srcu_refctl_scale that is defined
as non-static?  Last I checked, non-static was required in order for
the ___srcu_struct_ptrs mechanism to correctly allocate the needed
per-CPU data.

						Thanx, Paul
