Same as with 6.1:
ARM and ARM64 builds worked fine and passed tests, however BMIPS_GENERIC fails to build with:
arch/mips/kernel/smp.c: In function 'start_secondary': arch/mips/kernel/smp.c:340:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'rcutree_report_cpu_starting'; did you mean 'rcu_cpu_starting'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] rcutree_report_cpu_starting(cpu); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ rcu_cpu_starting cc1: all warnings being treated as errors host-make[5]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:250: arch/mips/kernel/smp.o] Error 1 host-make[4]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:500: arch/mips/kernel] Error 2 host-make[3]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:500: arch/mips] Error 2 host-make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
which is caused by 1fa03a4622bb26a31279a453aa251154f11e6c70 ("mips/smp: Call rcutree_report_cpu_starting() earlier").
It looks like rcutree_report_cpu_starting() has been introduced 448e9f34d91d1a4799fdb06a93c2c24b34b6fd9d ("rcu: Standardize explicit CPU-hotplug calls") which is in v6.7.
For MIPS, it would like an adequate fix would be to 's/rcutree_report_cpu_starting/rcu_cpu_starting/' for the 6.1 and 6.6 branches.
Again, the offending change has been dropped now, thanks.
