[PATCH] MIPS: VDSO: Fix build error

From: Qais Yousef
Date: Tue Dec 08 2015 - 05:12:09 EST


Commit ebb5e78cc634 (MIPS: Initial implementation of a VDSO) introduced a build
error.

For MIPS VDSO to be compiled it requires binutils version 2.25 or above but the
check in the Makefile had inverted logic causing it to be compiled in if binutils
is below 2.25.

This fixes the following compilation error:

CC arch/mips/vdso/gettimeofday.o
/tmp/ccsExcUd.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccsExcUd.s:62: Error: can't resolve `_start' {*UND* section} - `L0' {.text section}
/tmp/ccsExcUd.s:467: Error: can't resolve `_start' {*UND* section} - `L0' {.text section}
make[2]: *** [arch/mips/vdso/gettimeofday.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [arch/mips/vdso] Error 2
make: *** [arch/mips] Error 2
