kexec_file: drop weak attribute from functions
As requested (http://lkml.kernel.org/r/87ee0q7b92.fsf@email.froward.int.ebiederm.org), this series converts weak functions in kexec to use the #ifdef approach. Quoting the 3e35142ef99fe ("kexec_file: drop weak attribute from arch_kexec_apply_relocations[_add]") changelog: : Since commit d1bcae833b32f1 ("ELF: Don't generate unused section symbols") : [1], binutils (v2.36+) started dropping section symbols that it thought : were unused. This isn't an issue in general, but with kexec_file.c, gcc : is placing kexec_arch_apply_relocations[_add] into a separate : .text.unlikely section and the section symbol ".text.unlikely" is being : dropped. Due to this, recordmcount is unable to find a non-weak symbol in : .text.unlikely to generate a relocation record against. This patch (of 2); Drop __weak attribute from functions in kexec_file.c: - arch_kexec_kernel_image_probe() - arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup() - arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() - arch_kexec_locate_mem_hole() - arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig() arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() calls into kexec_image_load_default(), so drop the static attribute for the latter. arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig() is not overridden by any architecture, so drop the __weak attribute.
