I guess a non-empty description and a Fixes: tag would be nice.

Okay, I will send a v2 with the following description:
All functions in domain_build.c should be marked __init. This was spotted when building the hypervisor with -Og.

Fixes: 1050a7b91c xen/arm: add pci-domain for disabled devices

+1. I am actually quite interested to understand how this was spotted.

The build system should check that any function/data in domain_build.c
are part of the __init section. So I guess the compiler you are using
doesn't inline the function?

If so, I am actually surprised you are the first one spotted this... We
are building on various distribution without any issues (?). I would be
interested to know the compiler version and maybe we could add it in the
CI.

I added -Og to the make command line so it takes precedence over the default -O1/-O2:

$ make EXTRA_CFLAGS_XEN_CORE="-Og" XEN_TARGET_ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-linux-gnu- dist-xen -j $(nproc)

Indeed, I did observe the build error:
Error: size of arch/arm/domain_build.o:.text is 0x00000008

I used this rune to reveal the culprit:

$ aarch64-none-linux-gnu-objdump -d xen/arch/arm/domain_build.o | head

xen/arch/arm/domain_build.o:     file format elf64-littleaarch64


Disassembly of section .text:

I am using this toolchain: https://developer.arm.com/-/media/Files/downloads/gnu/11.3.rel1/binrel/arm-gnu-toolchain-11.3.rel1-x86_64-aarch64-none-linux-gnu.tar.xz

Further, there were two more build errors observed when building with -Og:
arch/arm/domain_build.c: In function ‘make_cpus_node’:
arch/arm/domain_build.c:2013:12: error: ‘clock_valid’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
 2013 |         if ( clock_valid )
      |            ^

arch/arm/efi/boot.c: In function ‘efi_start’:
arch/arm/efi/boot.c:1464:9: error: ‘argc’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]  1464 |         efi_arch_handle_cmdline(argc ? *argv : NULL, options, name.s);
      | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I assume these uninitialized use errors can simply be fixed by initializing the respective variables to false/0, but a second opinion would certainly be helpful.
