From: Jian Cai <caij2003@xxxxxxxxx> commit a780e485b5768e78aef087502499714901b68cc4 upstream ALT_UP_B macro sets symbol up_b_offset via .equ to an expression involving another symbol. The macro gets expanded twice when arch/arm/kernel/sleep.S is assembled, creating a scenario where up_b_offset is set to another expression involving symbols while its current value is based on symbols. LLVM integrated assembler does not allow such cases, and based on the documentation of binutils, "Values that are based on expressions involving other symbols are allowed, but some targets may restrict this to only being done once per assembly", so it may be better to avoid such cases as it is not clearly stated which targets should support or disallow them. The fix in this case is simple, as up_b_offset has only one use, so we can replace the use with the definition and get rid of up_b_offset.
