Hi Vasily,

I couldn't find the upstream patch post for 1d2ad084800e ("s390/nospec:
add an option to use thunk-extern"), so replying off-list here.  Feel
free to cc the appropriate list.

Regarding this change, as I understand it, when CONFIG_EXPOLINE_EXTERN=y
out-of-tree kernel modules will need to link against
arch/s390x/lib/expoline.o, right?

And if so, shouldn't the top level 'prepare_modules' target create
expoline.o for this purpose?

Regards,
