Dear Stable Maintainers,
Please consider cherry-picking:
commit fe00e50b2db8 ("ARM: 8858/1: vdso: use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to
link VDSO")
to linux-4.19.y.
It cherry picks cleanly and first landed in v5.2-rc1.
It allows us to more easily use ld.lld on arm32 for Android.
Also, please consider cherry-picking:
commit 29c623d64f0d ("ARM: 8939/1: kbuild: use correct nm executable")
to both linux-5.4.y and linux-4.19.y.
It cherry picks cleanly and first landed in v5.5-rc1.
It allows us to more easily use llvm-nm on arm32 for Android.
I've queued up the patches.
I've attached both backports as mbox files. Please let me know if it
would be preferable in the future for me to have one email per patch
being backported. I tested both locally, and the patches are passing
our presubmit testing in Android.
If the patches apply cleanly and pass your tests as-is, it's enough to
just list the commits and let us cherry pick. No need to attach the
patches to the mail.
