Subject[PATCH] arm64: define BUG() instruction without CONFIG_BUG
Message-ID<taT90-79j-21@gated-at.bofh.it>
This mirrors commit e9c38ceba8d9 ("ARM: 8455/1: define __BUG as
asm(BUG_INSTR) without CONFIG_BUG") to make the behavior of
arm64 consistent with arm and x86, and avoids lots of warnings in
randconfig builds, such as:

kernel/seccomp.c: In function '__seccomp_filter':
kernel/seccomp.c:666:1: error: no return statement in function returning non-void [-Werror=return-type]

Do we need to duplicate the asm, or can we reuse the existing BUG
definition in this header? The only extra thing we do is push a __bug_table
entry, but I can't see why that would be a problem.

The only reason for turning off CONFIG_BUG is to save a little extra space
in the kernel image, so I think we really don't want the __bug_table to be
generated.

However, we could split the existing asm in two and have only one definition
for the asm containing the brk instruction.
