Subject: [PATCH] Use LDFLAGS_MODULE only for .ko links

This replaces the "Move --build-id option" patch.

Thanks,

Sam Ravnborg pointed out that Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt already
says this is what it's for.  This patch makes the reality live up to the
documentation.  This fixes the problem of LDFLAGS_BUILD_ID getting into too
many places.
