linux-next: build failure after merge of the kbuild tree
From: Stephen Rothwell

Hi all,
After merging the kbuild tree, today's linux-next build (i386 defconfig)
failed like this:
ld: .vmlinux.export.o: in function `__ksymtab___builtin_memcmp':
.vmlinux.export.c:(___ksymtab+__builtin_memcmp+0x0): undefined reference to `__builtin_memcmp'
Caused by commit
c4b487ddc51f ("modpost: Create modalias for builtin modules")
I have reverted that commit, along with its parent and child, for
today. It's parent commit
66ef3890c628 ("modpost: Add modname to mod_device_table alias")
generated this warning in the i386 defconfig build:
scripts/mod/file2alias.c: In function ‘handle_moddevtable’:
scripts/mod/file2alias.c:1480:25: warning: variable ‘modnamelen’ set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
1480 | size_t typelen, modnamelen;
| ^~~~~~~~~~
