Recent assembler versions complain about extraneous whitespace inside [] brackets. This fixes all of these instances for the samsung platforms. We should backport this to all kernels that might need to be built with new binutils.I hope that's also been reported as a bug to the binutils people.
No, I did not think of that. There were a lot of bug reports for similar issues and I assumed that there was a good reason for the change, but I agree that it sounds like a regression, especially since the code that triggers the error should not be ambiguous and there was never a warning about it.
