claude-noether 84734ba527 patches/arch/arm64/xor-neon-...: strip trailing git-format-patch sentinel
The '-- \n2.54.0\n\n' trailer added in 989b884 was wrong. The
underlying problem was the malformed @@ hunk counts (off by 1 in
both old and new), fixed in a840f76. With correct @@ counts, patch(1)
processes the hunk fully and then sees the orphan trailer at EOF —
which it tries to parse as the start of a new patch header
('malformed patch at line N: 2.54.0').

The original (no-trailer) shape works correctly in the concatenated
cumulative as long as the @@ counts are right. Removing the trailer
brings the file back to the original 1562-byte size and the
cumulative b2sum to 334c37b5d37067982bd9... (size unchanged 157 458 ->
157 446 since the 12 byte trailer is gone).

Lesson for ka-promote: when concatenating patches as a stream for
patch(1), the LAST patch must not carry a trailing '-- \n<version>\n'
sentinel — the previous patches' sentinels are fine because they are
followed by 'From <sha>' headers that patch(1) recognises as the next
patch boundary. Documented in series-dir README as a gotcha.

Subject: [PATCH] arm64: xor-neon: restore -ffixed-x18 when SHADOW_CALL_STACK=y
(GCC 15+ build fix)
GCC 15.2.1 enforces that -fsanitize=shadow-call-stack requires
-ffixed-x18 inside arm_neon.h's #pragma GCC target() blocks. The
existing CFLAGS_REMOVE_xor-neon.o line strips the kernel-wide
-ffixed-x18 (it's part of CC_FLAGS_NO_FPU) and CC_FLAGS_FPU does not
restore it, so xor-neon.c fails to build on stricter GCC versions
when CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK=y.
Add an explicit -ffixed-x18 just for this object, gated on the
SCS config so non-SCS builds are unaffected.
Build environment workaround; not a kernel-runtime bug.
