What is 0xffaa5500 ?
Is it another salt in addition to CONFIG_BUILD_ID_SALT ?
Or, does it have a special meaning?

If you run "make menuconfig",
you will notice this looks so strange;
"Build ID Salt" is displayed in the top level menu.

You are pulling many macros in <asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h>
into modules, VDSO, etc.
You also need to touch
arch/*/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S
of all architectures.
This is not so nice.

I was playing with a different approach.
Instead of touching linker scripts around,
how about putting the salt into an elfnote?
The compiler puts the build ID
into the '.note.gnu.build-id' section.
So, I guess it is sensible to put
the salt into '.note.*' section as well.
I attached my trial below:
- I moved 'config BUILD_SALT' to a better location
so that it will be displayed in the "General setup" menu.
- I added 'range 0 0xffffffff' to avoid warnings.
- I renamed the config symbol to CONFIG_BUILD_SALT
and change the default to 0x0.
Of course, this is just bike-shed things, though..
- It looks like 'owner=Linux, type_id=0'
is already used in VDSO.

I chose 0x100 for the type id, but it could be a different value
