Linus Torvalds 8afc66e8d4 Kbuild updates for v6.1
- Remove potentially incomplete targets when Kbuid is interrupted by
    SIGINT etc. in case GNU Make may miss to do that when stderr is piped
    to another program.
 
  - Rewrite the single target build so it works more correctly.
 
  - Fix rpm-pkg builds with V=1.
 
  - List top-level subdirectories in ./Kbuild.
 
  - Ignore auto-generated __kstrtab_* and __kstrtabns_* symbols in kallsyms.
 
  - Avoid two different modules in lib/zstd/ having shared code, which
    potentially causes building the common code as build-in and modular
    back-and-forth.
 
  - Unify two modpost invocations to optimize the build process.
 
  - Remove head-y syntax in favor of linker scripts for placing particular
    sections in the head of vmlinux.
 
  - Bump the minimal GNU Make version to 3.82.
 
  - Clean up misc Makefiles and scripts.
