Subject: [PATCH] printk: kmsg_dump: Mark registered flag as private

The 'registered' flag is internally used by kmsg_dump_register()
and kmsg_dump_unregister() to track multiple registrations of the
same dumper.

It's protected by printk's internal dump_list_lock, and must thus
be accessed only from there. Mark it as private.
