This is all x86 code so you don't really need the "x86_" prefix - "nop"
is perfectly fine.
There is
#define nop() asm volatile ("nop")
in arch/x86/include/asm/special_insns.h already.
+noinstr void x86_BUG(void)
+{
+ BUG();

+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(x86_BUG);
That export is needed for?
Paravirt stuff in modules?
It builds here without it - I guess I need to do an allmodconfig.
It might not be needed now, but are you sure we won't need it in future?
