ATH25 allows you building for multiple SoCs at the same time, and if
you do so, you don't know in advance on which SoC you boot. So you
need to have third path here where cpu_has_llsc isn't wired to
anything.
This is wrong in the current code already, so should be fixed there.

Sorry, I typo'd. I wanted to write
#if !defined(CONFIG_SOC_AR5312)
#define cpu_has_llsc 1
#else if !defined(CONFIG_SOC_AR2315)
#define cpu_has_llsc 0
(#else /* don't define it */)
#endif
Only SOC_AR2315 selected => cpu_has_llsc = 1
Only SOC_AR5312 selected => cpu_has_llsc = 0
both selected => cpu_has_llsc will need to be determined at runtime
(don't set it to anything)

AFAICT the core issue is if the platform hardcodes cpu_has_llsc to 1.
So the error/warning this should be then something like this
if ((c->processor_id & PRID_REV_MASK) < PRID_REV_4KC_V1_0) {
c->options &= ~MIPS_CPU_LLSC;
if (cpu_has_llsc) { // <- should now be false, unless the platform
defines it as 1
pr_err("CPU has LLSC erratum, but cpu_has_llsc is force enabled!\n");
}
because clearing MIPS_CPU_LLSC does nothing if cpu_has_llsc is
#defined as 1, regardless if it selected WAR_4K_LLSC or not.
(also your error print is missing a \n at the end)
