Note, I'm getting ready to send out an update of Josh's patches.

This particular nit isn't really an issue, as #ifdef's do sometimes replace
blank lines.

Just mentioning this so you don't think I'm ignoring it, when I post patches.

Yeah, before it was in a Makefile macro which needed the $(comma) to
distinguish it from the macro arguments.

Actually, just CONFIG_AS_CFAME didn't work as 64-bit still compiles some
32-bit asm files.  I'll go with your suggestion.

Indeed.

True, I'll change it to just '#ifdef CONFIG_AS_SFRAME' since that's what
really matters (and 32-bit doesn't support it anyway).

You probably erroneously mixed up C preprocessor and Makefile syntax? :-)

ifeq ($(CONFIG_AS_SFRAME),y)
   SFRAME_CFLAGS := -Wa,--gsframe
endif

$(comma) does not appear to be required in this context.

Nit: Deleted blank line you introduced in "[PATCH v4 05/39] x86/asm:
Avoid emitting DWARF CFI for non-VDSO".


+#ifdef __x86_64__


#if defined(__x86_64__) && defined(CONFIG_AS_SFRAME)

AFAIK the kernel has a minimum binutils requirement of 2.25 [1]
and assembler option "--gsframe" as well as directive
".cfi_sections .sframe" were introduced with 2.40.
