Abel Vesa 6f05d0761a ARM: 8668/1: ftrace: Fix dynamic ftrace with DEBUG_RODATA and !FRAME_POINTER
The support for dynamic ftrace with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA involves
overriding the weak arch_ftrace_update_code() with a variant which makes
the kernel text writable around the patching.

This override was however added under the CONFIG_OLD_MCOUNT ifdef, and
CONFIG_OLD_MCOUNT is only enabled if frame pointers are enabled.

This leads to non-functional dynamic ftrace (ftrace triggers a
WARN_ON()) when CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is enabled and CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER
is not.

Move the override out of that ifdef and into the CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE
ifdef where it belongs.

Fixes: 80d6b0c2eed2a ("ARM: mm: allow text and rodata sections to be read-only")

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
