Merge branch 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild

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.

/*
* KENTRY - kernel entry point
* This can be used to annotate symbols (functions or data) that are used
* without their linker symbol being referenced explicitly. For example,
* interrupt vector handlers, or functions in the kernel image that are found
* programatically.
*
* Not required for symbols exported with EXPORT_SYMBOL, or initcalls. Those
* are handled in their own way (with KEEP() in linker scripts).
*
* KENTRY can be avoided if the symbols in question are marked as KEEP() in the
* linker script. For example an architecture could KEEP() its entire
* boot/exception vector code rather than annotate each function and data.
