[PATCH] MIPS: fw: arc: add __weak to prom_meminit and prom_free_prom_memory

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Sun Apr 05 2020 - 12:32:22 EST


As far as I understood, prom_meminit() in arch/mips/fw/arc/memory.c
is overridden by the one in arch/mips/sgi-ip32/ip32-memory.c if
CONFIG_SGI_IP32 is enabled.

The use of EXPORT_SYMBOL in static libraries potentially causes a
problem for the llvm linker [1]. So, I want to forcibly link lib-y
objects to vmlinux when CONFIG_MODULES=y.

As a groundwork, we must fix multiple definitions that have previously
been hidden by lib-y.

The prom_cleanup() in this file is already marked as __weak (because
it is overridden by the one in arch/mips/sgi-ip22/ip22-mc.c).
I think it should be OK to do the same for these two.

If MIPS maintainers ack this patch,
I want to inser it before the following patch:
