[PATCH] arch: drop duplicate exports of abort()

[PATCH] arch: drop duplicate exports of abort()

[Arnd Bergmann]

We now have exports in both architecture code in in common code,
which causes a link failure when symbol versioning is eanbled, on
four architectures:

kernel/exit.o: In function `__crc_abort':
exit.c:(*ABS*+0xc0e2ec8b): multiple definition of `__crc_abort'

This removes the four architecture specific exports and only
leaves the export next to the __weak symbol.

Fixes: mmotm ("kernel/exit.c: export abort() to modules")

Andrew, can you apply this to -mm on top of the other patch?

Will it not be better to remove the abort() as they are exactly same
like the weak function. That was the original plan we had when this
weak function was done. Like in the attached patch..

Will it not be better to remove the abort() as they are exactly same
like the weak function. That was the original plan we had when this
weak function was done. Like in the attached patch..

If that was the plan, why wasn't it done - why did we end up with a
build-breaking patch merged in -mm?

The proposed patch (which I attached in the earlier mail) was breaking
the build unless weak abort() is exported. So, ideally the export of
weak abort() and the proposed patch should have been part of a series.
But afaik, the export has been done to fix another build failure reported
by Vineet.

Andrew, I think the best way now is to apply the patch sent by Arnd,
and I will send a separate patch to remove abort() after proper testing.

FWIW, this hunk did not yet hit mainline. I've removed it from my patch in 
for-curr and re-pushed !
