	After commit a934a57a42f64a4 ("scripts/misc-check: check missing #include <linux/export.h> when W=1") and 7d95680d64ac8e836c ("scripts/misc-check: check unnecessary #include <linux/export.h> when W=1"), we get some build warnings with W=1: arch/loongarch/kernel/acpi.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is used, but #include <linux/export.h> is missing arch/loongarch/kernel/alternative.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is used, but #include <linux/export.h> is missing arch/loongarch/kernel/kfpu.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is used, but #include <linux/export.h> is missing arch/loongarch/kernel/traps.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is used, but #include <linux/export.h> is missing arch/loongarch/kernel/unwind_guess.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is used, but #include <linux/export.h> is missing arch/loongarch/kernel/unwind_orc.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is used, but #include <linux/export.h> is missing arch/loongarch/kernel/unwind_prologue.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is used, but #include <linux/export.h> is missing arch/loongarch/lib/crc32-loongarch.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is used, but #include <linux/export.h> is missing arch/loongarch/lib/csum.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is used, but #include <linux/export.h> is missing arch/loongarch/kernel/elf.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is not used, but #include <linux/export.h> is present arch/loongarch/kernel/paravirt.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is not used, but #include <linux/export.h> is present arch/loongarch/pci/pci.c: warning: EXPORT_SYMBOL() is not used, but #include <linux/export.h> is present So fix these build warnings for LoongArch.

2023-01-17	LoongArch: Use common function sign_extend64()	Tiezhu Yang
	There exists a common function sign_extend64() to sign extend a 64-bit value using specified bit as sign-bit in include/linux/bitops.h, it is more efficient, let us use it and remove the arch-specific sign_extend() under arch/loongarch.

2022-12-14	LoongArch: Add alternative runtime patching mechanism	Huacai Chen
	Introduce the "alternative" mechanism from ARM64 and x86 for LoongArch to apply runtime patching. The main purpose of this patch is to provide a framework. In future we can use this mechanism (i.e., the ALTERNATIVE and ALTERNATIVE_2 macros) to optimize hotspot functions according to cpu features.
