[PATCH] FRV: Fix the extern declaration of kallsyms_num_syms [try #2]

From: David Howells
Date: Tue Nov 13 2007 - 11:54:06 EST


From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>

Fix the extern declaration of kallsyms_num_syms to indicate that the symbol
does not reside in the small-data storage space, and so may not be accessed
relative to the small data base register.
