Right. Something else is fubar for that to happen, we should fix
whatever it is.


Agree, ARCH over-ruling by reading the underlying architecture will
not work, as the expectation is to have ARCH=powerpc for all of the 
powerpc platform. Sorry for the noise, kindly ignore this patch.

Arch ppc64le is not supported with CONFIG_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD at

Fix it by adding 'ppc64le' to list of supported architectures
in recordmcount.pl script.

I don't get this, the arch should always be powerpc. Where did you get the
ppc64le
from? Am I missing anything?

Thanks for the review. True, the top level Makefile derives the ARCH 
from SUBARCH where ppc64le is replaced by powerpc. Out of tree module 
build fails, where the ARCH gets overruled to underlying arch type.
