A mirror of the official Linux kernel repository just in case

Merge module sections only when using Clang LTO. With ld.bfd, merging
sections does not appear to update the symbol tables for the module,
e.g. 'readelf -s' shows the value that a symbol would have had, if
sections were not merged. ld.lld does not show this problem.
The stale symbol table breaks gdb's function disassembler, and presumably
other things, e.g.
gdb -batch -ex "file arch/x86/kvm/kvm.ko" -ex "disassemble kvm_init"
reads the wrong bytes and dumps garbage.
Fixes:

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
