Thanks for reporting this; the lopg is really helpful!

The problem is that with LTO, we patch READ_ONCE(), and <asm/rwonce.h>
includes <asm/insn.h>, creating a circular include chain:

	<linux/build_bug.h>
	<linux/compiler.h>
	<asm/rwonce.h>
	<asm/alternative-macros.h>
	<asm/insn.h>
	<linux/build-bug.h>

... and so when <asm/insn.h> includes <linux/build_bug.h>, none of the
BUILD_BUG* definitions have happened yet.

Will, are you happy to take the fixup patch below, or would you prefer
to drop this patch for now?

Thanks,
Mark.

Subject: [PATCH] arm64: insn: avoid circular include dependency

Nathan reports that when building with CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN=y, the
build fails due to BUILD_BUG_ON() not being defined before its uss in
<asm/insn.h>.

The problem is that with LTO, we patch READ_ONCE(), and <asm/rwonce.h>
includes <asm/insn.h>, creating a circular include chain:

        <linux/build_bug.h>
        <linux/compiler.h>
        <asm/rwonce.h>
        <asm/alternative-macros.h>
        <asm/insn.h>
        <linux/build-bug.h>

... and so when <asm/insn.h> includes <linux/build_bug.h>, none of the
BUILD_BUG* definitions have happened yet.

To avoid this, let's move AARCH64_INSN_SIZE into a header without any
dependencies, such that it can always be safely included. At the same
time, avoid including <asm/alternative.h> in <asm/insn.h>, which should
no longer be necessary (and doesn't make sense when insn.h is consumed
by userspace).
