Good catch, applied, thank you!
Due to recent changes, I hand-applied this as shown below. Please
let me know if I messed anything up.
Thanx, Paul

scftorture: Make symbol 'scf_torture_rand' static
The sparse tool complains as follows
kernel/scftorture.c:124:1: warning:
symbol '__pcpu_scope_scf_torture_rand' was not declared. Should it be static?
And this per-CPU variable is not used outside of scftorture.c,
so this commit marks it static.
