Well, this was a great idea until you find that this is also used for
linking the intermediate vmlinux objects for kallsyms, and kallsyms
uses weak (== undefined) symbols:
LD .tmp_vmlinux1
.tmp_vmlinux1: error: undefined symbol(s) found:
w kallsyms_addresses
w kallsyms_markers
w kallsyms_names
w kallsyms_num_syms
w kallsyms_token_index
w kallsyms_token_table
Maybe kallsyms needs to provide an empty object with these symbols
defined for the first linker pass, instead of using weak symbols?
