Hello,
this patch - now in mainline as commit 13cbc0cd4a30 ("x86/entry/32: Fix
#MC and #DB wiring on x86_32") - seems to break i586 builds with
CONFIG_XEN_PV=y as xenpv_exc_nmi and xenpv_exc_debug are only defined
with CONFIG_X86_64:
[ 1279s] ld: arch/x86/entry/entry_32.o: in function `asm_xenpv_exc_nmi':
[ 1279s] /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/kernel-pae-5.8.rc4/linux-5.8-rc4/linux-obj/../arch/x86/include/asm/idtentry.h:557: undefined reference to `xenpv_exc_nmi'
[ 1279s] ld: arch/x86/entry/entry_32.o: in function `asm_xenpv_exc_debug':
[ 1279s] /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/kernel-pae-5.8.rc4/linux-5.8-rc4/linux-obj/../arch/x86/include/asm/idtentry.h:567: undefined reference to `xenpv_exc_debug'
