Subject: [PATCH v2 00/26] kbuild: yet another series of cleanups (modpost and LTO)


This is the third batch of cleanups in this development cycle.

Major changes in v2:

 - V1 did not work with CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS.
   I fixed this for v2.

 - Reflect some review comments in v1

 - Refactor the code more

 - Avoid too long argument error
