* [PATCH for-stable-6.x 1/2] x86/boot: Rename conflicting 'boot_params' pointer to 'boot_params_ptr'

To: stable; +Cc: Ard Biesheuvel, Ingo Molnar, linux-kernel
From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
commit d55d5bc5d937743aa8ebb7ca3af25111053b5d8c upstream.
The x86 decompressor is built and linked as a separate executable, but
it shares components with the kernel proper, which are either #include'd
as C files, or linked into the decompresor as a static library (e.g, the
EFI stub)
Both the kernel itself and the decompressor define a global symbol
'boot_params' to refer to the boot_params struct, but in the former
case, it refers to the struct directly, whereas in the decompressor, it
refers to a global pointer variable referring to the struct boot_params
passed by the bootloader or constructed from scratch.
This ambiguity is unfortunate, and makes it impossible to assign this
decompressor variable from the x86 EFI stub, given that declaring it as
extern results in a clash. So rename the decompressor version (whose
scope is limited) to boot_params_ptr.
[ mingo: Renamed 'boot_params_p' to 'boot_params_ptr' for clarity ]
