5.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit a79a404e6c2241ebc528b9ebf4c0832457b498c3 upstream. Remove a build-time check for the presence of the GCC `-msym32' option. This option has been there since GCC 4.1.0, which is below the minimum required as at commit 805b2e1d427a ("kbuild: include Makefile.compiler only when compiler is needed"), when an error message: arch/mips/Makefile:306: *** CONFIG_CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS unsupported without -msym32. Stop. started to trigger for the `modules_install' target with configurations such as `decstation_64_defconfig' that set CONFIG_CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS, because said commit has made `cc-option-yn' an undefined function for non-build targets.
