[PATCH v2 0/2] Add wcslen()
From: Nathan Chancellor
Date: Wed Mar 26 2025 - 13:22:04 EST
Hi all,
A recent LLVM change [1] introduces a call to wcslen() in
fs/smb/client/smb2pdu.c through UniStrcat() via
alloc_path_with_tree_prefix(). Similar to the bcmp() and stpcpy()
additions that happened in 5f074f3e192f and 1e1b6d63d634, add wcslen()
to fix the linkage failure.

Changes in v2:
- Refactor typedefs from nls.h into nls_types.h to make it safe to
include in string.h, which may be included in many places throughout
the kernel that may not like the other stuff nls.h brings in:

- Drop libstub change due to the above change, as it is no longer
necessary.
- Move prototype shuffle of patch 2 into the patch that adds wcslen()
(Andy)
- Use new nls_types.h in string.{c,h}
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250325-string-add-wcslen-for-llvm-opt-v1-0-b8f1e2c17888@xxxxxxxxxx
