If you fix the issue in a separate patch/commit (i.e. not just a new version of
the same patch/commit), kindly add following tags

All errors (new ones prefixed by >>):

   sparc64-linux-ld: drivers/pci/probe.o: in function `pcie_update_link_speed':

probe.c:(.text+0x370): undefined reference to `__tracepoint_pcie_link_event'
sparc64-linux-ld: probe.c:(.text+0x37c): undefined reference to `__tracepoint_pcie_link_event'
sparc64-linux-ld: probe.c:(.text+0x3dc): undefined reference to `__traceiter_pcie_link_event'  

The config has:

# CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG_STATE_CONTROL is not set

Which looks to me from the first patch, would enable the code that
defines the trace events via the:

+#define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
+#include <trace/events/pci.h>

Thus, without compiling that file, the tracepoints would not be created
and you would get the above errors.
