Make khugepaged_collapse_control as it is not exported.
Fixes the following sparse warning:

mm/khugepaged.c:829:25: warning: symbol 'khugepaged_collapse_control' was not declared. Should it be static?

Thanks for the patch, but sorry to say that this has already been addressed in

(Small note: for something like this that isn't fixing an actual bug we don't
use a fixes like this).

Is this a subsystem preference because I was told I needed it for other
patches.

It's kernel-wide see [0].

If that's not clear, really you only want to do that if a bug
(i.e. something has runtime impact that breaks something) exists in a
released kernel that you are resolving.

It's to help us keep track of when bugs appeared and when they were
resolved, most pertinent to stable backports (if you fixed an actual bug
you'd typically want to Cc stable to kick off a backport).
