genksyms: Fix enum consts from a reference affecting new values
(2025-06-07 14:38:07 +0900)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Kbuild updates for v6.16
- Add support for the EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FOR_MODULES() macro, which exports a
symbol only to specified modules
- Improve ABI handling in gendwarfksyms
- Forcibly link lib-y objects to vmlinux even if CONFIG_MODULES=n
- Add checkers for redundant or missing <linux/export.h> inclusion
- Deprecate the extra-y syntax
- Fix a genksyms bug when including enum constants from *.symref files
