Ok, I had some more fun with this today. First of all, we needed a new
.config, but also, the issue only appears with linux-next. With that
configuration, I can hit the issue.

What seems to occur is that when parsing:

	static __uint128_t arm64_cpu_to_le128(__uint128_t x)
	{
		u64 a = swab64(x);
		u64 b = swab64(x >> 64);

		return ((__uint128_t)a << 64) | b;
	}

in fpsimd.c, then genksyms doesn't treate __uint128_t as a type and
therefore fails to figure out that this is a function. Consequently, it
keeps trying (and failing) to parse until it sees the end of the current
expression. This happens when it hits:

	EXPORT_SYMBOL(kernel_neon_begin);

thanks to the semi-colon.

So one nasty bodge to fix this is:

but actually, I think I've managed to hack genksyms itself. Patch below.

Subject: [PATCH] genksyms: Teach parse about __uint128_t built-in type

__uint128_t crops up in a few files that export symbols to modules, so
teach genksyms about it so that we don't end up skipping the CRC
generation for some symbols due to the parser failing to spot them:

  | WARNING: EXPORT symbol "kernel_neon_begin" [vmlinux] version
  |          generation failed, symbol will not be versioned.
  | ld: arch/arm64/kernel/fpsimd.o: relocation R_AARCH64_ABS32 against
  |     `__crc_kernel_neon_begin' can not be used when making a shared
  |     object
  | ld: arch/arm64/kernel/fpsimd.o:(.data+0x0): dangerous relocation:
  |     unsupported relocation
