The UML build needs a few kbuild changes in order to work with the latest
stuff.
Since kbuild now enforces the use of the linker script on the vmlinux build,
UML can't use its old two-stage link, where
vmlinux is a normal relocatable object file
which is linked into the linux binary with the linker script
So, in order to fold those into one stage and produce an ELF binary, I need
the vmlinux linker to actually be gcc. This implies I need a
-Wl,-T,arch/$(ARCH)/vmlinux.lds.s instead of the usual
-T arch/$(ARCH)/vmlinux.lds.s.
This is done without breaking the other arches by changing the final link
command to $(LD_vmlinux) which is defaulted to $(LD) if the arch doesn't
define it.
The -Wl,... is done similarly by using $(LDFLAGS_vmlinux_default) if
the linker command is anything but gcc and $(LDFLAGS_vmlinux_gcc) if it is
gcc.
The one caveat is that I removed $(LDFLAGS) from the link line - you might
want to add it back.
You can pull bk://jdike.stearns.org/kbuild-2.5. The patch is also appended.
