Hi Dave,

Sorry for the late reply, I have some comments inline.

arm64 build can be done without CONFIG_ACPI. The ifdef bits for
acpi_arch_dma_setup() is placed inside CONFIG_ACPI. When CONFIG_ACPI is
not set, this causes warning reported by kernel test bot. Move the
prototype declaration for acpi_arch_dma_setup() outside of CONFIG_ACPI.

...

drivers/acpi can only be compiled with CONFIG_ACPI=y, so
drivers/acpi/arm64/ will be the same, not sure how to trigger
this compile warning.

I disable CONFIG_ACPI on my ARM64 machine, but didn't get the
warning you reported.

Looking at the linked LKP report, it seems it's it's explicitly trying to build drivers/acpi/arm64/ despite the config:

        mkdir build_dir && cp config build_dir/.config
COMPILER_INSTALL_PATH=$HOME/0day COMPILER=clang make.cross W=1 O=build_dir ARCH=arm64 olddefconfig COMPILER_INSTALL_PATH=$HOME/0day COMPILER=clang make.cross W=1 O=build_dir ARCH=arm64 SHELL=/bin/bash drivers/acpi/arm64/

So I guess it's a problem with the LKP setup? In general, trying to build arbitrary parts of the kernel which are configured out can never be expected to work.

Thanks,
Robin.
