Building tinyconfig with gcc (Debian 11.2.0-16) and assembler (Debian
2.37.90.20220207) the following build error shows up:
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:1190: Error: unrecognized opcode: `stbcix'
{standard input}:1433: Error: unrecognized opcode: `lwzcix'
{standard input}:1453: Error: unrecognized opcode: `stbcix'
{standard input}:1460: Error: unrecognized opcode: `stwcix'
{standard input}:1596: Error: unrecognized opcode: `stbcix'
...
Rework to add assembler directives [1] around the instruction. Going
through them one by one shows that the changes should be safe. Like
__get_user_atomic_128_aligned() is only called in p9_hmi_special_emu(),
which according to the name is specific to power9. And __raw_rm_read*()
are only called in things that are powernv or book3s_hv specific.

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.
