What a mess! AFAICT there's one place which a non-string SYMBOL_PREFIX:
include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h
So we do need it, and the only sane way seems to be via the cmdline and
the shell usefully stripping quotes as we do.
So I just took Takashi's do-it-all-in-asm fix, and removed this
re-definition (we have the same thing, BTW, called
MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX).
I added a comment about the cmdline SYMBOL_PREFIX, too.
Thanks,
Rusty.

Subject: MODSIGN: Avoid using .incbin in C source
Using the asm .incbin statement in C sources breaks any gcc wrapper which
assumes that preprocessed C source is self-contained. Use a separate .S
file to include the siging key and certificate.
[ This means we no longer need SYMBOL_PREFIX which is defined in kernel.h
from cbdbf2abb7844548a7d7a6a2ae7af6b6fbcea401, so I removed it -- RR ]
