Move these two functions from kernel/idt.c to include/asm/desc.h: * init_idt_data() * idt_init_desc() These functions are needed to setup IDT entries very early and need to be called from head64.c. To be usable this early, these functions need to be compiled without instrumentation and the stack-protector feature. These features need to be kept enabled for kernel/idt.c, so head64.c must use its own versions.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
