I believe this should be fixed by this patch:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191007231741.2012860-1-paul.burton@xxxxxxxx/

It's currently in staging-next as commit 17a29fea086b ("staging/octeon:
Use stubs for MIPS && !CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC"). Could we get that merged in
the 5.4 cycle instead of 5.5?

Thanks,
Paul
