[PATCH] vmcoreinfo: make hwerr_data visible for debugging

[Breno Leitao]

If the kernel is compiled with LTO, hwerr_data symbol might be lost, and
vmcoreinfo doesn't have it dumped. This is currently seen in some
production kernels with LTO enabled.

Remove the static qualifier from hwerr_data so that the information is
still preserved when the kernel is built with LTO. Making hwerr_data
a global symbol ensures its debug info survives the LTO link process and
appears in kallsyms.
