Hello Randy,
I did address this when it occurred on the 24th [1]. I had looked at this and was thinking I would rename the maple tree function, but Matthew suggested renaming the mips function instead. I looked into the conflict and the arch/mips/kernel/mips-mt.c uses the mips_ prefix for almost all of the functions. So I generated a patch on my tree for next-20220225 which fixes the issue by renaming the mips side of things. Please see 51e773764d11 for the very small rename.

Thanks, Liam
OK, sounds good. Thanks.

Hi Liam,
Would you consider renaming maple tree's "mt_init()" function to maple_tree_init() or mtree_init() or something that does not conflict with the mt_init() function in arch/mips/ so that these build errors don't happen?
thanks.
