[PATCH 7/7] kbuild: link vmlinux just once for CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS

[Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>]

If CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled and the kernel is built from
a pristine state, the vmlinux is linked twice.

[1] A user runs "make"

[2] First build with empty autoksyms.h

[3] adjust_autoksyms.sh updates autoksyms.h and recurses "make vmlinux"

  --------(begin sub-make)--------
  [4] Second build with new autoksyms.h

  [5] link-vmlinux.sh is invoked because "vmlinux" is missing
  ---------(end sub-make)---------

[6] link-vmlinux.sh is invoked again despite "vmlinux" is up-to-date.

The reason of [6] is probably because Make already decided to update
"vmlinux" at the time of [2] because "vmlinux" was missing when Make
generated the dependency list.

link-vmlinus.sh is costly, so it is better to not run it when unneeded.
Split CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS handling to a dedicated target.

The reason of commit 2441e78b1919 ("kbuild: better abstract vmlinux
sequential prerequisites") was to cater to CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC, but
it was later removed by commit 184892925118 ("samples: move blackfin
gptimers-example from Documentation").

I also changed adjust_autoksyms.sh to simply exit with 1 or 0 to make
it look straightforward.
