kbuild: remove PROVIDE() for kallsyms symbols
This reimplements commit 951bcae6c5a0 ("kallsyms: Avoid weak references
for kallsyms symbols") because I am not a big fan of PROVIDE().
As an alternative solution, this commit prepends one more kallsyms step.
KSYMS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms0.S # added
AS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms0.o # added
LD .tmp_vmlinux.btf
BTF .btf.vmlinux.bin.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1
NM .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.syms
KSYMS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.S
AS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2
NM .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.syms
KSYMS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.S
AS .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.o
LD vmlinux
Step 0 takes /dev/null as input, and generates .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms0.o,
which has a valid kallsyms format with the empty symbol list, and can be
linked to vmlinux. Since it is really small, the added compile-time cost
is negligible.
