Subject: [RFC] move link of vmlinux to a script

The part of the top-level Makefile that links the
final vmlinux has accumulated a lot of cruft over
times and the makefile code is unreadable for
any normal human.

This is an attempt to clean up the situation, by
moving all the logic to a shell script.
In reality we almost never rely on the Makefile
logic to avoid a few steps in the link - and
the process is serialized in any case.
So the drawbacks by moving this to a shell script
are small compared to the added readability.

Known issues:
- sparc32 is broken by this. I will address the
  sparc32 bits before I do any final submission.

All the link magic is moved to a shell script:

    scripts/link-vmlinux.sh

To do so a few varialbles had to be exported
form the top-level Makefile.

"um" has a local definition of the linker
macro. I found no better way than to hardcode this
in the script. It looks ugly - and alternatives are
welcome!

If you apply the patch you can use:

   make V=L  (capital L)

to debug the script.
The default is the non-verbose output.

My shell script foo is limited, so expect to
find something sub-optimal in the script.

-# Based on the vmlinux file create the System.map file
-# System.map is used by module-init tools and some debugging
-# tools to retrieve the actual addresses of symbols in the kernel.
-#
-# Usage
-# mksysmap vmlinux System.map
-
-
-#####
-# Generate System.map (actual filename passed as second argument)
-
-# $NM produces the following output:
-# f0081e80 T alloc_vfsmnt
-
-#   The second row specify the type of the symbol:
-#   A = Absolute
-#   B = Uninitialised data (.bss)
-#   C = Comon symbol
-#   D = Initialised data
-#   G = Initialised data for small objects
-#   I = Indirect reference to another symbol
-#   N = Debugging symbol
-#   R = Read only
-#   S = Uninitialised data for small objects
-#   T = Text code symbol
-#   U = Undefined symbol
-#   V = Weak symbol
-#   W = Weak symbol
-#   Corresponding small letters are local symbols
-
-# For System.map filter away:
-#   a - local absolute symbols
-#   U - undefined global symbols
-#   N - debugging symbols
-#   w - local weak symbols
-
-# readprofile starts reading symbols when _stext is found, and
-# continue until it finds a symbol which is not either of 'T', 't',
-# 'W' or 'w'. __crc_ are 'A' and placed in the middle
-# so we just ignore them to let readprofile continue to work.
-# (At least sparc64 has __crc_ in the middle).
