Masahiro Yamada 5573b4daa2 kbuild: do not automatically add -w option to modpost
When there is a missing input file (vmlinux.o or Module.symvers), you
are likely to get a ton of unresolved symbols.

Currently, Kbuild automatically adds the -w option to allow module builds
to continue with warnings instead of errors.

This may not be what the user expects because it is generally more useful
to catch all possible issues at build time instead of at run time.

Let's not do what the user did not ask.

If you still want to build modules anyway, you can proceed by explicitly
setting KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN=1. Since you may miss a real issue, you need
to be aware of what you are doing.

# Stage one of module building created the following:
# a) The individual .o files used for the module
# b) A <module>.o file which is the .o files above linked together
# c) A <module>.mod file, listing the name of the preliminary <module>.o file,
# plus all .o files
# d) modules.order, which lists all the modules
# Stage 2 is handled by this file and does the following
# 1) Find all modules listed in modules.order
# 2) modpost is then used to
# 3) create one <module>.mod.c file per module
# 4) create one Module.symvers file with CRC for all exported symbols
# Step 3 is used to place certain information in the module's ELF
# section, including information such as:
# Version magic (see include/linux/vermagic.h for full details)
# - Kernel release
# - SMP is CONFIG_SMP
# - PREEMPT is CONFIG_PREEMPT[_RT]
# - GCC Version
# Module info
# - Module version (MODULE_VERSION)
# - Module alias'es (MODULE_ALIAS)
# - Module license (MODULE_LICENSE)
# - See include/linux/module.h for more details
# Step 4 is solely used to allow module versioning in external modules,
# where the CRC of each module is retrieved from the Module.symvers file.
