Andreas Gruenbacher 64e6c1e123 genksyms: track symbol checksum changes ... Sometimes it is preferable to avoid changes of exported symbol checksums (to avoid breaking externally provided modules). When a checksum change occurs, it can be hard to figure out what caused this change: underlying types may have changed, or additional type information may simply have become available at the point where a symbol is exported. Add a new --reference option to genksyms which allows it to report why checksums change, based on the type information dumps it creates with the --dump-types flag. Genksyms will read in such a dump from a previous run, and report which symbols have changed (and why). The behavior can be controlled for an entire build as follows: If KBUILD_SYMTYPES is set, genksyms uses --dump-types to produce *.symtypes dump files. If any *.symref files exist, those will be used as the reference to check against. If KBUILD_PRESERVE is set, checksum changes will fail the build.
