Subject: [PATCH v1 3/3] riscv: Only link libstub to final vmlinux

Since the efistub functions are useless for stack unwinder, they can be
ignored by objtool. No need to link libstub to the vmlinux.o, only link
libstub to the final vmlinux. Otherwise, there may be objtool warnings
when riscv supports objtool, this is to make consistent with the other
archs that use libstub.
