[PATCH] x86/extable: Fix extable_type_reg macro with Clang LTO

From: Nathan Chancellor
Date: Fri Dec 10 2021 - 18:51:57 EST


When building x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_FULL=y after
commit a90a845d94b4 ("x86/extable: Extend extable functionality"), the
build fails during linking:

ld.lld: error: <inline asm>:64:2: macro 'extable_type_reg' is already defined
.macro extable_type_reg type:req reg:req
^

The build failures happens because the definition of extable_type_reg
happens in every source file that includes asm.h, which all get combined
together during LTO.

Commit be604c616ca7 ("arm64: sysreg: Make mrs_s and msr_s macros work
with Clang and LTO") ran into a similar issue and the solution was to
define, use, then undefine the macro within each inline asm block it was
needed in.

Break apart the inline asm macro definition into two macros
({,UN}DEFINE_EXTABLE_TYPE_REG) and use them in _ASM_EXTABLE_TYPE so
there is no more error with LTO.

I expect this to be squashed into commit a90a845d94b4 ("x86/extable:
Extend extable functionality") in Peter's x86/wip.extable branch to
avoid bisect issues. The description and link are there for archaeology.
