Subject: [PATCH] ia64: Depend on non-static printk for cmpxchg debug

With !CONFIG_PRINTK, printk() is static in the header, but ia64's
cmpxchg.h with CONFIG_IA64_DEBUG_CMPXCHG doesn't take this into account
before trying to use it as extern, resulting in a compiler error:

    ./include/linux/printk.h:219:5: error: static declaration of 'printk' follows non-static declaration
    219 | int printk(const char *s, ...)
	|     ^~~~~~
    ./arch/ia64/include/uapi/asm/cmpxchg.h:142:14: note: previous declaration of 'printk' was here
    142 |   extern int printk(const char *fmt, ...);  \
	|              ^~~~~~

Make CONFIG_IA64_DEBUG_CMPXCHG dependent on CONFIG_PRINTK to avoid this.
