commit9522750c66upstream. Commit6735b4632d("Fonts: Support FONT_EXTRA_WORDS macros for built-in fonts") introduced the following error when building rpc_defconfig (only this build appears to be affected): `acorndata_8x8' referenced in section `.text' of arch/arm/boot/compressed/ll_char_wr.o: defined in discarded section `.data' of arch/arm/boot/compressed/font.o `acorndata_8x8' referenced in section `.data.rel.ro' of arch/arm/boot/compressed/font.o: defined in discarded section `.data' of arch/arm/boot/compressed/font.o make[3]: *** [/scratch/linux/arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile:191: arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 1 make[2]: *** [/scratch/linux/arch/arm/boot/Makefile:61: arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 2 make[1]: *** [/scratch/linux/arch/arm/Makefile:317: zImage] Error 2 The .data section is discarded at link time. Reinstating acorndata_8x8 as const ensures it is still available after linking. Do the same for the other 12 built-in fonts as well, for consistency purposes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
