I got modpost errors in 5.9-rc6 after this patch:

ERROR: modpost: "rcu_idle_enter" [drivers/acpi/processor.ko] undefined!
ERROR: modpost: "rcu_idle_exit" [drivers/acpi/processor.ko] undefined!

Reverting commit 1fecfdbb7acc made them go away.  Notably my
configuration had CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=m,  changing that
to CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y let the build succeed as well.

Cheers,
       Sven
