In order to allow drivers/irqchip/irq-bcm7038-l1.c to be built as a
module and usable in GKI, export cpu_logical_map or __cpu_logical_map
towards the modules. This follows what MIPS has been doing since
2dc2ae344e0e ("MIPS: Export __cpu_number_map and __cpu_logical_map.")

This seems like a pretty bad idea.  For one you should export an
accessor instead of the data structure.  And this probably should be an
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.
