compiler error (mips-linux-gnu-gcc (Debian 10.2.1-6) 10.2.1 20210110):
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:171: Error: found '(', expected: ')'
{standard input}:171: Error: found '(', expected: ')'
{standard input}:171: Error: non-constant expression in ".if" statement
{standard input}:171: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized
character is `('
Expands ___SYNC() macros. However, 'if' statement will be wrong
assembly.This Compilers report a lot of errors like the above.
this problem is caused by the #define of if() in
include/linux/compiler.h when CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES
is set. Move '.if' into quoted strings to fix it.
