[PATCH v2 1/3] kbuild: refactor variables in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Sun Jun 09 2024 - 13:09:35 EST


Clean up the variables in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh

- Specify the extra objects directly in vmlinux_link()
- Move the AS rule to kallsyms()
- Set kallsymso and btf_vmlinux_bin_o where they are generated
- Remove unneeded variable, kallsymso_prev
- Introduce btf_data variable

No functional change intended.
