Dear stable kernel maintainers, please consider applying the attached patch for 4.19.y. It is adjusted to avoid conflicts due to: commit 3ac0f4526dfb ("arm64: lib: Use modern annotations for assembly functions") commit 35e61c77ef38 ("arm64: asm: Add new-style position independent function annotations")] not being backported to 4.19.y. It helps us enable LLVM_IAS=1 builds for aarch64 for Android and CrOS.
