asm-generic: Define CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_DESCRIPTORS
Replace HAVE_DEREFERENCE_FUNCTION_DESCRIPTOR by a config option named CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_DESCRIPTORS and use it instead of 'dereference_function_descriptor' macro to know whether an arch has function descriptors. To limit churn in one of the following patches, use an #ifdef/#else construct with empty first part instead of an #ifndef in asm-generic/sections.h On powerpc, make sure the config option matches the ABI used by the compiler with a BUILD_BUG_ON() and add missing _CALL_ELF=2 when calling 'sparse' so that sparse sees the same piece of code as GCC. And include a helper to check whether an arch has function descriptors or not : have_function_descriptors() Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Acked-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/4a0f11fb0ea74a3197bc44dd7ba25e53a24fd03d.1644928018.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu
