[edk2-devel] [PATCH v1] MdeModulePkg/Bus: Fix XhciDxe Linker Issues

["Nate DeSimone" <nathaniel.l.desimone@intel.com>]

The DXE & MM standalone variant of AcpiTimerLib defines a global
named mPerformanceCounterFrequency. A global with an identical
name is also present in MdeModulePkg/Bus/Pci/XhciDxe/Xhci.c

Since XhciDxe has a dependency on TimerLib, this can cause link
errors due to the same symbol being defined twice if the platform
DSC chooses to use AcpiTimerLib as the TimerLib implementation for
any given platform.

To resolve this, I noted that some of the globals in Xhci.c are not
used outside of the Xhci.c compilation unit:

- mPerformanceCounterStartValue
- mPerformanceCounterEndValue
- mPerformanceCounterFrequency
- mPerformanceCounterValuesCached

I have changed the definition for all of these to STATIC. Since they
are not used outside of the Xhci.c compilation unit, there is no
reason to have them exported as globals.
