After manually checking, I found memmove() for the mips preboot environment
was incidentally introduced by commit a510b616131f ("MIPS: Add support for
ZSTD-compressed kernels") which wasn't included in v5.4, but included in
v5.10 as below (so v5.10.y is fine):
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/arch/mips/boot/compressed?h=v5.10&id=a510b616131f85215ba156ed67e5ed1c0701f80f
And when I applied the following patch partially from the original
commit, the compile error with the command lines mentioned above was gone:
diff --git a/arch/mips/boot/compressed/string.c b/arch/mips/boot/compressed/string.c
index 43beecc3587c..e9ab7ea592ba 100644

How to backport such commit partially to the v5.4.y stable kernel?
... Also, it would be better to check other mips compile combinations
automatically since it's hard for me to check all such combinations
one-by-one...

commit a510b616131f85215ba156ed67e5ed1c0701f80f upstream.
kernel test robot reported a 5.4.y build issue found by randconfig [1]
after backporting commit 89b158635ad7 ("lib/lz4: explicitly support
in-place decompression""). This isn't a problem for v5.10+ since
commit a510b616131f ("MIPS: Add support for ZSTD-compressed kernels")
which wasn't included in v5.4, but included in v5.10.y, so only v5.4.y
is effected.
This partially cherry-picks the memmove part of commit a510b616131f
to fix the reported build issue for v5.4.y stable only. Hopefully
kernelci could also double check this.

not sure if the stable-only patch format is like this, it partially
cherry-picks the useful memmove part of commit a510b616131f to fix
the build issue found by randconfig fuzz only.

I've sent out a patch (although not sure if the exact format like this):

That's the exact commit, the original upstream commit was named as
"MIPS: Add support for ZSTD-compressed kernels", which contains the
memmove() definition so the upstream / 5.10 LTS kernel is fine.
But for 5.4 LTS, we shouldn't backport the whole patch since only
memmove() part is needed in order to fix the build regression...
Thanks,
Gao Xiang

That was not obvious, and is confusing :(
Please just submit the fix and say _why_ this is not an upstream commit,
do not attempt to emulate an upstream commit like your change did.

Ok, got it. I was confused how to handle such condition as well...
Let me resend it...
