Subject: [PATCH 2/2] elfcore: fix building with clang
Date: Fri,  4 Dec 2020 17:57:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201204165742.3815221-2-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201204165742.3815221-1-arnd@kernel.org>

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

kernel/elfcore.c only contains weak symbols, which triggers
a bug with clang in combination with recordmcount:

Cannot find symbol for section 2: .text.
kernel/elfcore.o: failed

Move the empty stubs into linux/elfcore.h as inline functions.
As only two architectures use these, just use the architecture
specific Kconfig symbols to key off the declaration.
