Our CI reported that this patch as commit ce9ba49a2460 ("arm64/xor: use
EOR3 instructions when available") in the arm64 tree breaks
allyesconfig:

https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/continuous-integration2/runs/4514540083?check_suite_focus=true

I also see this when building with GCC 11.2.0:

I suspect this is another genksyms crash, preventing the
__crc_xor_block_inner_neon symbol from ever being emitted.

This is a recurring annoyance and I am not sure how to address this
properly. Arnd might have some thoughts on the matter as well.

I managed to reproduce this: it's not a crash but definitely a bug in
genksyms, as it simply fails to produce the output containing the
assignment of __crc_xor_block_inner_neon.

Moving the definition of xor_block_inner_neon as below works around the issue.

Catalin: would you like me to spin a v3? Or do your prefer to just
fold this into the existing one?

The root cause appears to be that genksyms gives up when it encounters

static inline uint64x2_t eor3(uint64x2_t p, uint64x2_t q, uint64x2_t r)
{

because the types are not defined. This is because our
asm/neon-intrinsics.h header avoids #include'ing arm-neon.h in the
context of genksyms, as doing so does result in a genksyms crash.

I have very little motivation to go and figure out why genksyms
crashes in that case, so I think for now, we can stick with the fix I
proposed. Alternatively, we could typedef uint64x2_t to something
arbitrary if __GENKSYMS__ is defined, or use a macro instead of a
static inline for eor3()

I'll stick to the fix you proposed (already folded in). If we ever add
another EXPORT_SYMBOL after the eor3() function, we better look into
fixing genksyms or defining a dummy uint64x2_t.
