See also:
commit 4d6ffa27b8e5 ("x86/lib: Change .weak to SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK for
arch/x86/lib/mem*_64.S")
commit ec9d78070de9 ("arm64: Change .weak to SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK_PI
for arch/arm64/lib/mem*.S")
Also, please note in the commit message that this diagnostic comes
from using clang as the assembler (which is clang's default behavior
unless -fno-integrated-as is passed).
