kbuild: fix UNUSED_KSYMS_WHITELIST for Clang LTO
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Commit fbe078d ("kbuild: lto: add a default list of used symbols")
does not work as expected if the .config file has already specified
CONFIG_UNUSED_KSYMS_WHITELIST="my/own/white/list" before enabling
CONFIG_LTO_CLANG.

So, the user-supplied whitelist and LTO-specific white list must be
independent of each other.

I refactored the shell script so CONFIG_MODVERSIONS and CONFIG_CLANG_LTO
handle whitelists in the same way.

By default, all unused exported symbols will be un-exported from the
build when TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is selected.
