Acknowledged. Uploaded v3.
I added back 2>/dev/null which was removed by a previous change, to
suppress GNU objcopy warnings. The warnings could be annoying in V=1
output.

Subject: [PATCH bpf v3] bpf: Support llvm-objcopy and llvm-objdump for
vmlinux BTF
Simplify gen_btf logic to make it work with llvm-objcopy and llvm-objdump.
Add 2>/dev/null to suppress GNU objcopy (but not llvm-objcopy) warnings
"empty loadable segment detected at vaddr=0xffffffff81000000, is this intentional?"
Our use of --only-section drops many SHF_ALLOC sections which will essentially nullify
program headers. When used as linker input, program headers are simply
ignored.
We use a dd command to change the e_type field in the ELF header from
ET_EXEC to ET_REL so that .btf.vmlinux.bin.o can be accepted by lld.
Accepting ET_EXEC as an input file is an extremely rare GNU ld feature
that lld does not intend to support, because this is very error-prone.
Fixes: df786c9b9476 ("bpf: Force .BTF section start to zero when dumping from vmlinux")
