Building a size optimized ppc64 kernel (-Os), gcc emits more FP
save/restore symbols, that the linker generates on demand into the
.sfpr section. Explicitly allow-list those in scripts/mod/modpost.c,
too. They are needed for the amdgpu in-kernel floating point support.
Would have been interested to know with which version of GCC the problem
started.
By the way you seem to fix the problem for modules, but does it also
work when amdgpu is in kernel ? I would have expected a need to add
functions in arch/powerpc/lib/crtsavres.S as well, just like following
commits:
8fe9c93e7453 ("powerpc: Add vr save/restore functions")
7fca5dc8aa7a ("powerpc: Fix module building for gcc 4.5 and 64 bit")
da3de6df33f5 ("[POWERPC] Fix -Os kernel builds with newer gcc versions")

Theoretically for -stable, but no previous commit that broke it.
In that case you have to add Cc: [email protected]
Add indeed it is likely a gcc upgrade that broke it, not a previous commit.
