x86: Get rid of Makefile.postlink
Instead of generating the vmlinux.relocs file (needed by the decompressor build to construct the KASLR relocation tables) as a vmlinux postlink step, which is dubious because it depends on data that is stripped from vmlinux before the build completes, generate it from vmlinux.unstripped, which has been introduced specifically for this purpose. This ensures that each artifact is rebuilt as needed, rather than as a side effect of another build rule. This effectively reverts commit 9d9173e9ceb6 ("x86/build: Avoid relocation information in final vmlinux") Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
