    kbuild: Move generation of vmlinux.lds.s into arch/.../kernel · 5b0f6ac4
    Kai Germaschewski authored
    Currently, vmlinux.lds.s is generated by the top-level Makefile.
    Unfortunately, this causes the automatic CONFIG dependencies to
    not work correctly, the reason being that make caches the timestamps
    of include/config/* so even after split-include updated the
    timestamps, make still uses the cached stamps to decide whether to
    rebuild vmlinux.lds.s.
    
    The simple fix is to move generation of vmlinux.lds.s into the
    arch/$(ARCH)/kernel subdirectories, where we build other files
    for the final link (like head.o) anyway. This also means some
    special code in the top-level Makefile for preprocessing can go
    away, since we now just use the standard rules during the recursive
    phase.
    
    This patches fixes up all archs for this change (untested).
