Subject: [PATCH 11/46] x86/alternative, lto: Mark int3_*() as global and __visible

From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>

Symbols referenced from assembler (either directly or e.f. from
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY()) need to be global and visible in gcc LTO because
they could end up in a different object file than the assembler. This
can lead to linker errors without this patch.

So mark int3_magic() and int3_selftest_ip() as global and __visible.
