Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the arm-current tree

Hi Russell,

After merging the arm-current tree, today's linux-next build (arm
multi_v7_defconfig) failed like this:

arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S: Assembler messages:
arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S:535: Error: invalid operands (*ABS* and .text sections) for `|'
arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S:535: Error: invalid operands (*ABS* and .text sections) for `|'

Caused by commit f2fd12256533 ("ARM: proc-v7: avoid errata 430973
workaround for non-Cortex A8 CPUs").

I have reverted that commit for today.

The ARM autobuilders built the tree I pushed out with no problems. The
commit itself isn't quite correct, but the merge head of the for-next
branch /is/ correct. I've now fixed that, but I don't see why you would
have hit this.

Could it have been tool chain specific? We are running

arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi-gcc (GCC) 4.9.0
GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.24

Also, note that I merged your tree with Linus' tree up to today (commit
3cfb2f7976a2 "Merge tag 'pci-v4.0-fixes-3' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/helgaas/pci").
