No no. I mean just KERNEL_LDFLAGS like comparison to MODULE_LDFLAGS. No
elf or nothing like that. Is there any problem if one provides this
setting even on x86 if linker recognizes it? (what is being tested
here). PPC_BUILD_ID_FLAG just sounds too specific.

Isn't EFI also using ELF? I assume this would be beneficial also there.
