Hi Laura,
I love your patch! Yet something to improve:
[auto build test ERROR on linus/master]
[also build test ERROR on v4.17 next-20180608]
[if your patch is applied to the wrong git tree, please drop us a note to help improve the system]
url: https://github.com/0day-ci/linux/commits/Laura-Abbott/scripts-Preprocess-module-common-lds/20180612-083632
config: i386-randconfig-a1-201823 (attached as .config)
compiler: gcc-4.9 (Debian 4.9.4-2) 4.9.4
reproduce:
# save the attached .config to linux build tree
make ARCH=i386
All errors (new ones prefixed by >>):
ld: cannot open linker script file scripts/module-common.lds: No such file or directory
This seems to need the following.
cheers
