On BE32 kernels, the __opcode_to_mem_thumb32() interface is intentionally
not defined, but it is referenced whenever runtime patching is enabled
for the kernel, which may be for ftrace, jump label, kprobes or kgdb:
arch/arm/kernel/patch.c: In function '__patch_text_real':
arch/arm/kernel/patch.c:94:32: error: implicit declaration of function '__opcode_to_mem_thumb32' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
94 | insn = __opcode_to_mem_thumb32(insn);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since BE32 kernels never run Thumb2 code, we never end up using the
result of this call, so providing an extern declaration without
a definition makes it build correctly.

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.
