Subject: [PATCH 5.9 071/133] x86/lib: Change .weak to SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK for arch/x86/lib/mem*_64.S

From: Fangrui Song <maskray@...gle.com>

commit 4d6ffa27b8e5116c0abb318790fd01d4e12d75e6 upstream.

Commit

  393f203f5fd5 ("x86_64: kasan: add interceptors for memset/memmove/memcpy functions")

added .weak directives to arch/x86/lib/mem*_64.S instead of changing the
existing ENTRY macros to WEAK. This can lead to the assembly snippet

  .weak memcpy
  ...
  .globl memcpy

which will produce a STB_WEAK memcpy with GNU as but STB_GLOBAL memcpy
with LLVM's integrated assembler before LLVM 12. LLVM 12 (since
https://reviews.llvm.org/D90108) will error on such an overridden symbol
binding.

Commit

  ef1e03152cb0 ("x86/asm: Make some functions local")

changed ENTRY in arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S to SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL, which
was ineffective due to the preceding .weak directive.

Use the appropriate SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK instead.
