Something went wrong on our end

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 same order for initcalls that we would have without LTO. With LTO enabled, the script is called in link-vmlinux.sh through jobserver-exec to limit the number of jobs spawned. Signed-off-by:
