No, it isn't declared in arch/mips/kernel/smp.c, its *defined* there (no
"extern"). It's referenced by:
arch/mips/cavium-octeon/smp.c
arch/mips/kernel/process.c
arch/mips/kernel/smp-bmips.c
arch/mips/kernel/smp-cps.c
arch/mips/loongson/loongson-3/smp.c
as well as arch/mips/kernel/smp.c, which is why the declaration is
needed in a header.

If you're attempting to fix the build errors in this area, please see:
