[Bug 1516682] [NEW] a trusty stable release patch breaks module loading on arm64

 

Public bug reported:

This upstream patch "arm64: errata: add module build workaround for
erratum #843419" breaks module loading on arm64 and was pulled into
trusty-proposed via stable release. The trusty master-next commit is:
f869de1cf9b57d28dbba9f15569f5ae2c54c8724. Wily saw this as well, since
it also carries the patch and the workaround used there was to disable
CONFIG_ARM64_ERRATUM_843419.

The issue was mentioned to upstream here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg449982.html
and a fix was proposed here: 
http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg450685.html
