This actually causes a build failure on a sparc32 defconfig build:
`rpcauth_remove_module' referenced in section `.init.text' of net/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of net/built-in.o
I applied the following patch for today:
Fixes:
`rpcauth_remove_module' referenced in section `.init.text' of net/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of net/built-in.o
