I saw a bunch of similar weak functions, is it not acceptable?
fs/proc$ grep weak *.c
cpuinfo.c:__weak void arch_freq_prepare_all(void)
meminfo.c:void __attribute__((weak)) arch_report_meminfo(struct seq_file *m)
vmcore.c:int __weak elfcorehdr_alloc(unsigned long long *addr, unsigned long long *size)
vmcore.c:void __weak elfcorehdr_free(unsigned long long addr)
vmcore.c:ssize_t __weak elfcorehdr_read(char *buf, size_t count, u64 *ppos)

architectures in an appropriate way, do you have any suggestions?
