The patch titled Subject: treewide: remove stringification from __alias macro definition has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was treewide-remove-stringification-from-__alias-macro-definition.patch This patch was dropped because it was nacked ------------------------------------------------------ From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: treewide: remove stringification from __alias macro definition Like the old __section macro, the __alias macro uses macro # stringification to create quotes around the symbol name used in the __attribute__. This can cause differences between gcc and clang when the stringification itself contains a quote character. So avoid these differences by always using quotes to define the aliased symbol. Remove the stringification and add quotes and when necessary a stringification when existing uses have a ## concatenation. Unlike the __section macro conversion in commit 33def8498fdd ("treewide: Convert macro and uses of __section(foo) to __section("foo")") this one was done by hand. No other use of __alias exists in the kernel. This patch does _not_ convert any uses of __attribute__((alias("<foo>"))) so it should not cause any compilation issues.
