a header file should only contain declarations, not entire definitions.

The fact that we have constructs like

static const struct rate_ctr_desc bts_ctr_description[] = {
       [BTS_CTR_CHREQ_TOTAL] =                 {"chreq:total", "Received channel requests"},

in a header file means that very C file including this header file will get its own private copy of the entire definition.

The header file should only include this declaration:

extern const struct rate_ctr_desc bts_ctr_description[];

and the actual non-static definition should be in a C file.
