  git checkout a91c5d8940ac0be6c80a796ddf6a2ddae5242c58
  # save the attached .config to linux build tree
  make.cross ARCH=frv

Something appears to be screwed up in the FRV toolchain's handling of
weak symbols.

Possibly this is due to our implementation of cond_syscall().  I assume
this doesn't happen with C symbols which are declared __weak, so
perhaps someone who has an FRV compiler can look at the compiler's
assembly output for a __weak C symbol, compare that with the
cond_syscall() implementation and see if the difference suggests a fix.
