This patch results (or appears to result) in the following build error
when trying to build sparc64:allmodconfig.

Error log:
<stdin>:1519:2: warning: #warning syscall clone3 not implemented [-Wcpp]
WARNING: modpost: drivers/cpufreq/sparc-us2e-cpufreq: section mismatch in reference: cpufreq_us2e_driver+0x20 (section: .data) -> us2e_freq_cpu_init (section: .init.text)
WARNING: modpost: drivers/cpufreq/sparc-us3-cpufreq: section mismatch in reference: cpufreq_us3_driver+0x20 (section: .data) -> us3_freq_cpu_init (section: .init.text)
ERROR: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in arch/sparc/video/fbdev.o
ERROR: modpost: "__xchg_called_with_bad_pointer" [lib/atomic64_test.ko] undefined!

Bisect log attached. Note that I suspect that there are several problems,
but that is difficult to determine since this patch can not easily
be reverted.
