Below is the impending v2 if you wanted to give it an early test, I plan
to send it along formally Thursday morning with all of the addressed
feedback so far.

Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: Disable CONFIG_LD_ORPHAN_WARN for ld.lld 10.0.1

ld.lld 10.0.1 spews a bunch of various warnings about .rela sections,
along with a few others. Newer versions of ld.lld do not have these
warnings. As a result, do not add '--orphan-handling=warn' to
LDFLAGS_vmlinux if ld.lld's version is not new enough.
