Subject: [PATCH] x86/platform/intel-mid: make several arrays static, makes code smaller

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

Don't populate arrays on the stack, instead make them static .
Makes the object code smaller by 76 bytes:

Before:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   4217	   1540	    128	   5885	   16fd	arch/x86/platform/intel-mid/pwr.o

After:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   3981	   1700	    128	   5809	   16b1	arch/x86/platform/intel-mid/pwr.o
