Masahiro Yamada ce697ccee1 kbuild: remove head-y syntax
Kbuild puts the objects listed in head-y at the head of vmlinux.
Conventionally, we do this for head*.S, which contains the kernel entry
point.

A counter approach is to control the section order by the linker script.
Actually, the code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section,
which is placed before the normal ".text" section.

I do not know if both of them are needed. From the build system
perspective, head-y is not mandatory. If you can achieve the proper code
placement by the linker script only, it would be cleaner.

I collected the current head-y objects into head-object-list.txt. It is
a whitelist. My hope is it will be reduced in the long run.

# Head objects
#
# The objects listed here are placed at the head of vmlinux. A typical use-case
# is an object that contains the entry point. This is kept for compatibility
# with head-y, which Kbuild used to support.
#
# A counter approach is to control the section placement by the linker script.
# The code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section, which is placed
# before the normal ".text" section.
#
# If you can achieve the correct code ordering by linker script, please delete
# the entry from this file.
