Subject: [PATCH] kernel/time/jiffies.c - make variable static

sparse complains:

  CHECK   kernel/time/jiffies.c
kernel/time/jiffies.c:92:20: warning: symbol 'refined_jiffies' was not declared. Should it be static?

__clocksource_register() is passed a pointer, and nothing else refers to it. Make it static.
