The build of next-20081216 (m68k defconfig) failed like this:

arch/m68k/kernel/setup.c:230: error: conflicting types for '_end'
arch/m68k/kernel/setup.c:215: error: previous declaration of '_end' was here

Caused by commit 0de5c2d9f02d2018fd671ca1015432dffa5eb338 ("param:
arch_get_boot_command_line()") from the poot-params tree.

This is due to the existing

    extern int _etext, _edata, _end;

in and the newly added

    extern char _end[];

to arch/m68k/kernel/setup.c.

As these are already declared in asm-generic/sections.h (which is used by
asm-m68k/sections.h), I'll switch arch/m68k/kernel/setup.c to using them.
