With LTO, the compiler doesn't necessarily obey the link order for
initcalls, and initcall variables need globally unique names to avoid
collisions at link time.

This change exports __KBUILD_MODNAME and adds the initcall_id() macro,
which uses it together with __COUNTER__ and __LINE__ to help ensure
these variables have unique names, and moves each variable to its own
section when LTO is enabled, so the correct order can be specified using
a linker script.

The generate_initcall_ordering.pl script uses nm to find initcalls from
the object files passed to the linker, and generates a linker script
that specifies the intended order. With LTO, the script is called in
link-vmlinux.sh.

I think I asked before about this being made unconditional, but the hit
on final link time was noticeable. Am I remembering that right? If so,
sure, let's keep it separate.

/me makes noises about make -jN and the jobserver and not using all
processors on a machine if we were asked nicely not to.

I wrote a jobserver aware tool for the documentation builds, but it's in
python (scripts/jobserver-exec). Instead of reinventing that wheel (and
in Perl), we could:

1) ignore this problem and assume anyone using LTO is fine with using all CPUs

2) implement a jobserver-aware Perl script to do this

3) make Python a build dependency of CONFIG_LTO and re-use scripts/jobserver-exec

Oh, I think lds should be explicitly a "local" at the start of this
function, perhaps back in the symversions patch that touches this?

Yes, it was noticeable when compiling on systems with fewer CPU cores,
so I would prefer to keep it separate.

I'm fine with any of these options, although I'm not sure why anyone
would want to compile an LTO kernel without using all the available
cores... :)

Using jobserver-exec seems like the easiest option if we want to limit
the number of cores used here. Any preferences?

It's already local, that part is just not visible in this patch.

Is this guaranteed to give you the *same* initcall ordering with LTO as
without?

Yes. It follows the link order, just like the linker without LTO, and
also preserves the order within each file.
