Hi everyone,
Attempting to build ppc64_defconfig kernel with powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu
(GCC 12.1.0) on v5.18, I got build error on ftrace.o:

I also hit this error on current master (commit babf0bb978e3c9
("Merge tag 'xfs-5.19-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux")).
Thanks.
