Merge tag 'kbuild-fixes-v5.6-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild
Pull Kbuild fixes from Masahiro Yamada: - fix __uint128_t capability test in Kconfig when GCC that defaults to 32-bit is used to build the 64-bit kernel - suppress new noisy Clang warnings -Wpointer-to-enum-cast - move the namespace field in Module.symvers for the backward compatibility reason for the depmod tool - use available compression for initramdisk when INTRAMFS_SOURCE is defined, which was the original behavior - fix modpost to handle correct large section numbers when it refers to modversion CRCs and module namespaces - fix comments and documents * tag 'kbuild-fixes-v5.6-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild: scripts/kallsyms: fix wrong kallsyms_relative_base modpost: Get proper section index by get_secindex() instead of st_shndx initramfs: restore default compression behavior modpost: move the namespace field in Module.symvers last kbuild: Disable -Wpointer-to-enum-cast kbuild: doc: fix references to other documents int128: fix __uint128_t compiler test in Kconfig kconfig: introduce m32-flag and m64-flag kbuild: Fix inconsistent comment
