Commit 0f71dcfb4a ("powerpc/ftrace: Add support for
-fpatchable-function-entry") added a script to check for
-fpatchable-function-entry compiler support. The script expects compiler
to emit the section __patchable_function_entries and few nops after a
function entry.
If the compiler understands and emits the above,
CONFIG_ARCH_USING_PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY is set.
So teach dummy-tools' gcc about this.

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or
make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
