Well we tracked it down and it is powerpc64 specific.
Seems that in drivers/hwmon/lm93.c there's a function called:
LM93_IN_FROM_REG()
But PPC64 has function descriptors and the real function names (the ones
you see in objdump) start with a '.'. Thus this in objdump you have:
Disassembly of section .text:
0000000000000000 <.LM93_IN_FROM_REG>:
0: 7c 08 02 a6 mflr r0
4: fb 81 ff e0 std r28,-32(r1)
The function name used is .LM93_IN_FROM_REG. But gcc considers symbols
that start with ".L" as a special symbol that is used inside the assembly
stage.
The nm passed into recordmcount uses the --synthetic option which shows
the ".L" symbols (my runs outside of the build did not include the
--synthetic option, so my older patch worked). We see the function as a
local.
Now to capture all the locations that use "mcount" we need to have a
reference to link into the object file a list of mcount callers. We need a
reference that will not disappear. We try to use a global function and if
that does not work, we use a local function as a reference. But to relink
the section back into the object, we need to make it global. In this case,
we run objcopy using --globalize-symbol and --localize-symbol to convert
the symbol into a global symbol, link the mcount list, then convert it
back to a local symbol.
This works great except for this case. .L* symbols can not be converted
into a global symbol, and the mcount section referencing it will remain
unresolved.

Will permanently set oops_in_progress on any lockdep failure.
When this triggers it will cause any read from the ring buffer to
permanently disable the ring buffer (not to mention no locking of
printk).
This patch removes the check. It keeps the print in NMI which makes
sense. This is probably OK, since the ring buffer should not cause
something to set oops_in_progress anyway.

The function ring_buffer_discard_commit inversed the code path
of the result of try_to_discard. It should skip incrementing the
entry counter if try_to_discard succeeded. But instead, it increments
the entry conder if it succeeded to discard, and does not increment
it if it fails.
The result of this bug is that filtering will make the stat counters
incorrect.

This patch fixes a case in the transmit completion code which was resulting
in pktgen hanging at the end of a run. The cause is due to the fact that
the ->cb[] area of an skb cannot be used in a network driver's transmit
path, as that area belongs to the network protocol. Pktgen hangs, as it
sends out the same packet multiple times, and vxge's use of this area of
the skb for a temporary list can only add the packet to the temporary list
once (while it may be on the queue many times). The fix is to remove this
abuse of skb->cb[]. Instead, skb pointers are placed into a temporary
stack array, and then free outside of the tx lock. This retains the smp
optimization of doing dev_kfree_skb() outside of the tx lock.

The skb priority to vlan-qos egress mapping that can be configured using
set_egress_map with vconfig is overriden by the DCB code in the driver.
This patch allows this existing mechanism to work and will increase the
configuration flexibility of DCB mode on Linux.
A hierarchy of configuration is:
1. Modifies the ixgbe_select_queue() routine for DCB mode to return the
priority value from the VLAN tag. It will normally be zero, unless the egress
priority map has modified it. This will get packets into the correct queue and
result in the queue_mapping field being set correctly.
2. Any tc filter which modifies queue_mapping will be honored, as the filters
are handled after the vlan egress map is handled.

the wait handling in kvm_s390_handle_wait was broken by using different

o move all the s390 specific code to vcpu->wq and remove
vcpu->arch.local_int.wq
o move all the s390 specific code to vcpu->arch.local_int.wq
This patch chooses the 2nd variant for two reasons:
o s390 does not use kvm_vcpu_block but implements its own enabled wait
handling.
Having a separate wait_queue make it clear, that our wait mechanism is
different
o the patch is much smaller
