x86/boot: Add CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS quirk to arch/x86/boot/compressed/misc.h
Linus reported the following new warning on x86 allmodconfig with GCC 5.1: > ./arch/x86/include/asm/spinlock.h: In function ‘arch_spin_lock’: > ./arch/x86/include/asm/spinlock.h:119:3: warning: implicit declaration > of function ‘__ticket_lock_spinning’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration] > __ticket_lock_spinning(lock, inc.tail); > ^ This warning triggers because of these hacks in misc.h: /* * we have to be careful, because no indirections are allowed here, and * paravirt_ops is a kind of one. As it will only run in baremetal anyway, * we just keep it from happening */ #undef CONFIG_PARAVIRT #undef CONFIG_KASAN But these hacks were not updated when CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS was added, and eventually (with the introduction of queued paravirt spinlocks in recent kernels) this created an invalid Kconfig combination and broke the build. So add a CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS #undef line as well. Also remove the _ASM_X86_DESC_H quirk: that undocumented quirk was originally added ages ago, in: 099e1377269a ("x86: use ELF format in compressed images.") and I went back to that kernel (and fixed up the main Makefile which didn't build anymore) and checked what failure it avoided: it avoided an include file dependencies related build failure related to our old x86-platforms code. That old code is long gone, the header dependencies got cleaned up, and the build does not fail anymore with the totality of asm/desc.h included - so remove the quirk.
