Nathan Chancellor b0f2942a16 kbuild: Use '--strip-unneeded-symbol' for removing module device table symbols
After commit 5ab23c7923 ("modpost: Create modalias for builtin
modules"), relocatable RISC-V kernels with CONFIG_KASAN=y start failing
when attempting to strip the module device table symbols:

  riscv64-linux-objcopy: not stripping symbol `__mod_device_table__kmod_irq_starfive_jh8100_intc__of__starfive_intc_irqchip_match_table' because it is named in a relocation
  make[4]: *** [scripts/Makefile.vmlinux:97: vmlinux] Error 1

The relocation appears to come from .LASANLOC5 in .data.rel.local:

  $ llvm-objdump --disassemble-symbols=.LASANLOC5 --disassemble-all -r drivers/irqchip/irq-starfive-jh8100-intc.o

  drivers/irqchip/irq-starfive-jh8100-intc.o:   file format elf64-littleriscv

  Disassembly of section .data.rel.local:

  0000000000000180 <.LASANLOC5>:
  ...
       1d0: 0000          unimp
                  00000000000001d0:  R_RISCV_64   __mod_device_table__kmod_irq_starfive_jh8100_intc__of__starfive_intc_irqchip_match_table
  ...

This section appears to come from GCC for including additional
information about global variables that may be protected by KASAN.

There appears to be no way to opt out of the generation of these symbols
through either a flag or attribute. Attempting to remove '.LASANLOC*'
with '--strip-symbol' results in the same error as above because these
symbols may refer to (thus have relocation between) each other.

Avoid this build breakage by switching to '--strip-unneeded-symbol' for
removing __mod_device_table__ symbols, as it will only remove the symbol
when there is no relocation pointing to it. While this may result in a
little more bloat in the symbol table in certain configurations, it is
not as bad as outright build failures.
