Commit06a4b6d009("ARM: 8677/1: boot/compressed: fix decompressor header layout for v7-M") fixed an issue in the layout of the header of the compressed kernel image that was caused by the assembler emitting narrow opcodes for 'mov r0, r0', and for this reason, the mnemonic was updated to use the W() macro, which will append the .w suffix (which forces a wide encoding) if required, i.e., when building the kernel in Thumb2 mode. However, this failed to take into account that on Thumb2 kernels built for CPUs that are also ARM capable, the entry point is entered in ARM mode, and so the instructions emitted here will be ARM instructions that only exist in a wide encoding to begin with, which is why the assembler rejects the .w suffix here and aborts the build with the following message: head.S: Assembler messages: head.S:132: Error: width suffixes are invalid in ARM mode -- `mov.w r0,r0' So replace the W(mov) with separate ARM and Thumb2 instructions, where the latter will only be used for THUMB2_ONLY builds.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
