[PATCH 2/2] ARC: provide for gcc "isolate path" induced generated abort calls
From: Vineet Gupta
Date: Fri Dec 08 2017 - 14:13:08 EST
gcc toggle -fisolate-erroneous-paths-dereference (default at -O2
onwards) isolates faulty code paths such as null pointer access, divide
by zero etc. If gcc port doesnt implement __builtin_trap, an abort() is
generated which causes kernel link error hence this patch.
FWIW ARC gcc now has the builtin, but we need to handle this error for
older toolchains.
The code in question triggering gcc is in lib/mpi/mpih-div.o
