We see new warnings everywhere:

-----8<-----
   /builds/linux/scripts/mod/modpost.c:1123:44: warning: excess elements in array initializer
    1123 |         .good_tosec = {ALL_TEXT_SECTIONS , NULL},
         |                                            ^~~~

Bisection points to:

   commit 4060bae9dab232eb15bc7ddaaeb278b39456adf9
   Author: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@...nel.org>
   Date:   Tue Jan 23 15:59:55 2024 -0700

       modpost: Add '.ltext' and '.ltext.*' to TEXT_SECTIONS
       
       [ Upstream commit 397586506c3da005b9333ce5947ad01e8018a3be ]

Reverting that commits makes the warning go away.

One reproducer:

   tuxmake --runtime podman --target-arch arm64 --toolchain gcc-12 --kconfig tinyconfig
