Subject: [PATCH] mm/memory.c: Mark wp_huge_pmd() inline to prevent build failure
Date: Sun,  3 Dec 2017 22:11:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1512335500-10889-1-git-send-email-geert@linux-m68k.org> (raw)

With gcc 4.1.2:

    mm/memory.o: In function `wp_huge_pmd':
    memory.c:(.text+0x9b4): undefined reference to `do_huge_pmd_wp_page'

Interestingly, wp_huge_pmd() is emitted in the assembler output, but
never called.

Apparently replacing the call to pmd_write() in __handle_mm_fault() by a
call to the more complex pmd_access_permitted() reduced the ability of
the compiler to remove unused code.

Fix this by marking wp_huge_pmd() inline, like was done in commit
91a90140f9987101 ("mm/memory.c: mark create_huge_pmd() inline to prevent
build failure") for a similar problem.

Fixes: c7da82b894e9eef6 ("mm: replace pmd_write with pmd_access_permitted in fault + gup paths")
