Boot-tested under QEMU for Rust x86_64, arm64 and riscv64; built-tested
for loongarch64:

Tested-by: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@xxxxxxxxxx>

loongarch64 failed to build for me:

arch/loongarch/kernel/machine_kexec.c:139:13: error: static declaration of 'machine_kexec_mask_interrupts' follows non-static declaration
139 | static void machine_kexec_mask_interrupts(void)
| ^
./include/linux/irq.h:698:13: note: previous declaration is here
698 | extern void machine_kexec_mask_interrupts(void);
| ^

The `static void machine_kexec_mask_interrupts(void)` for loongarch64
was not removed because it was adjusted in:

429bf3f04c24 ("LoongArch: Add machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() implementation")

which is only in 6.12.

I hope that helps!
