    Merge branch 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild · 84d69848
    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek:
    
     - EXPORT_SYMBOL for asm source by Al Viro.
    
       This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates
       checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is
       working on a patch to fix this.
    
       Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely
       change prototypes.
    
     - Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick
       Piggin
    
     - fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan.
    
     - preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with
       -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections
    
     - CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell
    
     - fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me.
