This broke arm64 allmodconfig:

arm64.allmodconfig:
drivers/bus/hisi_lpc.c:656:3: error: implicit declaration of function
'hisi_lpc_acpi_remove'; did you mean 'hisi_lpc_acpi_probe'?
[-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

As an aside, I find it a little strange that arm64 allmodconfig does not have CONFIG_ACPI set. It used to have it set, and this patch stopped that:

drivers: acpi: add dependency of EFI for arm64

As Ard suggested, CONFIG_ACPI && !CONFIG_EFI doesn't make sense on arm64,
while CONFIG_ACPI and CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN doesn't make sense either.

As CONFIG_EFI already has a dependency of !CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN, it is
good enough to add a dependency of CONFIG_EFI to avoid any useless
combination of configuration.

This bug, reported by Will, will be revealed when my patch series,
"arm64: kexec,kdump: fix boot failures on acpi-only system," is applied
and the kernel is built under allmodconfig.

That patch stopped many configs being set for allmodconfig.

With this change, CONFIG_EFI is not set. I think that this is because CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN is set for arm64 allmodconfig.

Any opinion on this? Could we change CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN to be unset for arm64?




Uhhh, that's my fault - I didn't provide a stub for !ACPI. Sorry. I'll
send a fixed v3 series.


Please build and test your branches before you send pull requests, Wei.

I've dropped the branch again; please re-submit when fixed. I think
it's probably 5.3 material now.


Thanks,
John
