    x86: Fix binutils-2.21 symbol related build failures · 2ae9d293
    Sedat Dilek authored
    New binutils version 2.21.0.20110302-1 started checking that the symbol
    parameter to the .size directive matches the entry name's
    symbol parameter, unearthing two mismatches:
    
      AS      arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_rm.o
      arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_rm.S: Assembler messages:
      arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_rm.S:12: Error: .size expression with symbol `wakeup_code_start' does not evaluate to a constant
    
      arch/x86/kernel/entry_32.S: Assembler messages:
      arch/x86/kernel/entry_32.S:1421: Error: .size expression with
      symbol `apf_page_fault' does not evaluate to a constant
    
    The problem was discovered while using Debian's binutils
    (2.21.0.20110302-1) and experimenting with binutils from
    upstream.
    
    Thanks Alexander and H.J. for the vital help.
