Ah, you are right, I got the text wrong here, and I think I now understand
why it didn't happen earlier. Updated patch below (same patch, new
text).

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: imx6: fix SMP compilation again

My earlier patch 1fc593feaf8e ("ARM: imx: build i.MX6 functions
only when needed") fixed a problem with building an i.MX5 kernel,
but now the problem has returned for the case where we allow
ARMv6K SMP builds in multiplatform. With CONFIG_CPU_V7 disabled,
but i.MX3 and SMP enabled, we get this build error:

arch/arm/mach-imx/built-in.o: In function `v7_secondary_startup':
:(.text+0x5124): undefined reference to `v7_invalidate_l1'

This puts the code inside of an "ifdef CONFIG_SMP" to hopefully
do the right thing in all configurations.
