The .toc section is not really intended for arbitrary data. Writable
data in particular prevents making the TOC read-only after relocation.
Move hcall_tracepoint_refcount into the .data section.

This is split out from "[v2,2/5] powerpc/64: asm use consistent global
variable declaration and access" because another series to make TOC
read-only depends on it. This patch decouples the two series.

Thanks,
Nick
