Re: [PATCH v2] RISC-V: Always compile mm/init.c with cmodel=medany

Hi Anup,

Sorry for being late to the party. I think one more thing should
move together with setup_vm():

earlier in this file, there are four lines about ftrace,

5 ifdef CONFIG_FTRACE
6 CFLAGS_REMOVE_ftrace.o = -pg
7 CFLAGS_REMOVE_setup.o = -pg
8 endif

removing "-pg" flag from setup.o was necessary for ftrace to work, since
setup_vm() cannot process the trampoline of ftrace properly.

As setup_vm() is being moved to mm/init.c, you may either mark it with a
"notrace" attribute with its declaration, or adding corresponding CFLAGS_REMOVE*
to mm/Makefile.
