Excerpts from Christophe Leroy's message of October 14, 2021 3:49 pm:
Replace HAVE_DEREFERENCE_FUNCTION_DESCRIPTOR by
HAVE_FUNCTION_DESCRIPTORS and use it instead of
'dereference_function_descriptor' macro to know
whether an arch has function descriptors.

To limit churn in one of the following patches, use
an #ifdef/#else construct with empty first part
instead of an #ifndef in asm-generic/sections.h

Is it worth putting this into Kconfig if you're going to
change it? In any case

That was what I wanted to do in the begining but how can I do that in Kconfig ?

#ifdef __powerpc64__
#if defined(_CALL_ELF) && _CALL_ELF == 2
#define PPC64_ELF_ABI_v2
#else
#define PPC64_ELF_ABI_v1
#endif
#endif /* __powerpc64__ */

#ifdef PPC64_ELF_ABI_v1
#define HAVE_DEREFERENCE_FUNCTION_DESCRIPTOR 1
