commit: 5990cdee689c6885b27c6d969a3d58b09002b0bc lib/mpi: Fix building for powerpc with clang
I am certain that this patch did nothing to cause this... Maybe exposed
it but not the root cause.

kb_cs and kb_data are declared as extern void pointers when
CONFIG_WALNUT is set, which this config does. However, it looks like
the definitions of these variables were removed in
commit  917f0af9e5a9 ("powerpc: Remove arch/ppc and include/asm-ppc"),
way back in 2.6.27-rc1... So presumably, this has been broken for 12
years and nobody noticed?
Hmm, nice. 12 years is a pretty typical time frame for finding bugs in
the powerpc tree ... o_O

Our ppc40x_defconfig has CONFIG_SERIO=m, but explicitly disables
CONFIG_SERIO_I8042. And walnut_defconfig disables CONFIG_SERIO.

So I guess it has a PS2 controller but most folks didn't use it?
Probably means there is a good amount of dead
code that can be removed, or we could just avoid ever selecting this
driver with CONFIG_WALNUT (if it does not actually work without the
special handling from i8042-ppcio.h) while removing the dead code.
I'm inclined to let the driver be selected, rather than carry a wart for
it. I doubt anyone will ever turn it on explicitly, and if they do they
can have fun debugging it.

The rest of the context is ^

Which makes it clear that your removal of the entire file results in no
change when WALNUT=n.

I'm not sure if anyone really maintains that code, but this is all PPC
really so I think we could merge it.

Do you want to send a proper SOB'ed patch?

cheers
