[PATCH 1/2] powerpc: add enable_kernel_fp() stub for ALTIVEC without PPC_FPU

[PATCH 1/2] powerpc: add enable_kernel_fp() stub for ALTIVEC without PPC_FPU

[Randy Dunlap]

On a kernel config with ALTIVEC=y and PPC_FPU not set/enabled,
there is a build error:

drivers/cpufreq/pmac32-cpufreq.c:262:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'enable_kernel_fp' [-Werror,-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
           enable_kernel_fp();

so add a stub function for that when PPC_FPU is not set.

[PATCH 2/2] powerpc: add ALTIVEC support to lib/ when PPC_FPU not set

[Randy Dunlap]

When PPC_FPU is not set and ALTIVEC=y, arch/powerpc/lib/ldstfp.c is not
being built, but it is also needed when ALTIVEC=y for get_vr() and
put_vr().

../arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c: In function 'do_vec_load':
../arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c:637:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'put_vr' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  637 |   put_vr(rn, &u.v);
      |   ^~~~~~
../arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c: In function 'do_vec_store':
../arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c:660:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'get_vr'; did you mean 'get_oc'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  660 |   get_vr(rn, &u.v);
      |   ^~~~~~


Add ldstfp.o to the Makefile for CONFIG_ALTIVEC and add
externs for get_vr() and put_vr() in lib/sstep.c to fix the
build errors.

This was seen in a kernel config from kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>
that reported a different build issue (for pmac32-cpufreq.c).

It is probably a good idea to split ldstfp.S into two, one for each of
the two configuration options?

Or we can build it all the time and #ifdef the FPU part.

Because it contains FPU, ALTIVEC and VSX stuff.

So it becomes an empty object file if none of the options are selected?
Good idea :-)
