on SMP), it does not seem to work?

For sh-allnoconfig, as reported by kernel test robot:

$ make ARCH=sh CROSS_COMPILE=sh2-linux- allnoconfig lib/objpool.o
lib/objpool.c: In function 'objpool_try_add_slot':

For an SMP defconfig:

$ make ARCH=sh CROSS_COMPILE=sh4-linux-gnu- sdk7786_defconfig lib/objpool.o

Hiramatsu-san: do these build for you?
