    linkage: add generic GLOBAL() macro · 01356c64

    commit ad697a1aecac19ec351063b5d8e6fc9d4bca7ee5 upstream.
    
    Declaring a global symbol in assembly is tedious, error-prone, and
    painful to read. While ENTRY() exists, this is supposed to be used for
    function entry points, and this affects alignment in a potentially
    undesireable manner.
    
    Instead, let's add a generic GLOBAL() macro for this, as x86 added
    locally in commit:
    
      95695547 ("x86: asm linkage - introduce GLOBAL macro")
    
    ... thus allowing us to use this more freely in the kernel.
