The quilt patch titled
     Subject: loongarch, kexec: change dependency of object files
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     loongarch-kexec-change-dependency-of-object-files.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: loongarch, kexec: change dependency of object files
Date: Fri, 8 Dec 2023 15:30:32 +0800

Patch series "kexec: fix the incorrect ifdeffery and dependency of
CONFIG_KEXEC".

The select of KEXEC for CRASH_DUMP in kernel/Kconfig.kexec will be
dropped, then compiling errors will be triggered if below config items are
set:

===
CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=y
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y
===

E.g on mips, below link error are seen:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
mipsel-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `kimage_free':
kernel/kexec_core.c:(.text+0x2200): undefined reference to `machine_kexec_cleanup'
mipsel-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `__crash_kexec':
kernel/kexec_core.c:(.text+0x2480): undefined reference to `machine_crash_shutdown'
mipsel-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.c:(.text+0x2488): undefined reference to `machine_kexec'
mipsel-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `kernel_kexec':
kernel/kexec_core.c:(.text+0x29b8): undefined reference to `machine_shutdown'
mipsel-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.c:(.text+0x29c0): undefined reference to `machine_kexec'
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Here, change the incorrect dependency of building kexec_core related
object files, and the ifdeffery on architectures from CONFIG_KEXEC to
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE.

Testing:
========
Passed on mips and loognarch with the LKP reproducer.


This patch (of 5):

Currently, in arch/loongarch/kernel/Makefile, building machine_kexec.o
relocate_kernel.o depends on CONFIG_KEXEC.

Whereas, since we will drop the select of KEXEC for CRASH_DUMP in
kernel/Kconfig.kexec, compiling error will be triggered if below config
items are set:

===
CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=y
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y
===

---------------------------------------------------------------
loongarch64-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `.L209':
>> kexec_core.c:(.text+0x1660): undefined reference to `machine_kexec_cleanup'
   loongarch64-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `.L287':
>> kexec_core.c:(.text+0x1c5c): undefined reference to `machine_crash_shutdown'
>> loongarch64-linux-ld: kexec_core.c:(.text+0x1c64): undefined reference to `machine_kexec'
   loongarch64-linux-ld: kernel/kexec_core.o: in function `.L2^B5':
>> kexec_core.c:(.text+0x2090): undefined reference to `machine_shutdown'
   loongarch64-linux-ld: kexec_core.c:(.text+0x20a0): undefined reference to `machine_kexec'
---------------------------------------------------------------

Here, change the dependency of machine_kexec.o relocate_kernel.o to
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE can fix above building error.
