[PATCH 28/58] alpha: makefile: don't enforce small data model for kernel builds

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Mon Sep 02 2013 - 05:05:19 EST


3.5.7.21 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx>

commit cd8d2331756751b6aeb855a3c9cb0a92fbd9c725 upstream.

Due to all of the goodness being packed into today's kernels, the
resulting image isn't as slim as it once was.

In light of this, don't pass -msmall-data to gcc, which otherwise results
in link failures due to impossible relocations when compiling anything but
the most trivial configurations.
