Dear Cédric Le Goater and Christophe Leroy,

Thanks for all your suggestions! I'll pick them in my patch and resent it soon.


Thanks again.

OK. I'll adapt that.

The variables 'uaccess_fulsh' and 'entry_flush' are not referenced
outside the file. So define them as static to avoid the warnings.

And add a prototype for the function 'panic_smp_self_stop' for the
same purpose.

Sparse also warns that 'rfi_flush' should be static. However, it's
referenced outside the file.
To clear that warning, you have to include asm/security_features.h, rfi_flush 
is declared there.
Do you mean that I should include this header in arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c?
yes.

The warnings about the file reported by sparse are as follows:
arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c:422:6: warning: symbol 'panic_smp_self_stop' was 
not declared. Should it be static?
arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c:951:6: warning: symbol 'rfi_flush' was not 
declared. Should it be static?
arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c:952:6: warning: symbol 'entry_flush' was not 
declared. Should it be static?
arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c:953:6: warning: symbol 'uaccess_flush' was not 
declared. Should it be static?

For function prototypes 'extern' is unneeded and deprecated.

And function prototypes should go in an header file.

panic_smp_self_stop() is called from kernel/panic.c , it should be declared in 
one of the generic linux header files I think.
Yes, you're right. But I have no idea which header it should be declared in. 
May I have your suggestions?
arch/powerpc/include/asm/bug.h looks like a good place.
Why declaring it in a powerpc header ?

It's a weak function defined in core part of kernel (kernel/panic.c).

I think it should go in a common header, just like for instance 
arch_thaw_secondary_cpus_begin()
Indeed. include/linux/smp.h is a better place for a common routine.
