[PATCH v1 05/10] asm-generic: Define 'funct_descr_t' to commonly describe function descriptors

From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Mon Oct 11 2021 - 11:27:48 EST


We have three architectures using function descriptors, each with its
own name.

Add a common typedef that can be used in generic code.

Also add a stub typedef for architecture without function descriptors,
to avoid a forest of #ifdefs.
