ARM: 9434/1: cfi: Fix compilation corner case
When enabling expert mode CONFIG_EXPERT and using that power user mode to disable the branch prediction hardening !CONFIG_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR, the assembly linker in CLANG notices that some assembly in proc-v7.S does not have corresponding C call sites, i.e. the prototypes in proc-v7-bugs.c are enclosed in ifdef CONFIG_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR so this assembly: SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START(cpu_v7_smc_switch_mm) SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START(cpu_v7_hvc_switch_mm) Results in: ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __kcfi_typeid_cpu_v7_smc_switch_mm >>> referenced by proc-v7.S:94 (.../arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S:94) >>> arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.o:(.text+0x108) in archive vmlinux.a ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __kcfi_typeid_cpu_v7_hvc_switch_mm >>> referenced by proc-v7.S:105 (.../arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S:105) >>> arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.o:(.text+0x124) in archive vmlinux.a Fix this by adding an additional requirement that CONFIG_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR has to be enabled to compile these assembly calls.
