module: make MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX into a CONFIG option
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The next commit will require the use of MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX in
.tmp_exports-asm.S.  Currently it is mixed in with C structure
definitions in "asm/module.h".  Move the definition of this arch option
into Kconfig, so it can be easily accessed by any code.

This also lets modpost.c use the same definition.  Previously modpost
relied on a hardcoded list of architectures in mk_elfconfig.c.

A build test for blackfin, one of the two MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX archs,
showed the generated code was unchanged.  vmlinux was identical save
for build ids, and an apparently randomized suffix on a single "__key"
symbol in the kallsyms data).
