When building with the LLVM linker this error occurrs:
LD arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso-syms.o
ld.lld: error: no input files
This happens because the lld treats -R as an alias to -rpath, as opposed
to ld where -R means --just-symbols.
Use the long option name for compatibility between the two.

Thanks for the patch. Maybe the comment can be dropped? It doesn't
make sense if there's no -R in the source file you're touching. If
someone cares about why `--just-symbols` is spelled out, that's what
`git log` or vim fugitive is for. Maybe the maintainer would be kind
enough to just drop that line for you when merging?

Jordan, Fangrui, thoughts on this? Sounds like something other users
of LLD might run into porting their codebase to LLVM's linker.
$ ld.lld --help | grep \\-R
-R <value> Alias for --rpath
$ ld.bfd --help | grep \\-R
-R FILE, --just-symbols FILE

The comment of `With ld -R we can then ...` should be fixed as well.

Independently, I noticed this ~2 days ago.
https://reviews.llvm.org/D76885#1952860
GNU ld parses options with getopt_long and -j is recognized as
--just-symbols ('R') because there is no other long options prefixed with -j.
Now, the following comment applies. Basically, --just-symbols/-R is an
overloaded option. It can be used as an -rpath if the argument is a directory.
The best practice is to use either -rpath or --just-symbols, never -R.
// binutils-gdb/ld/lexsup.c
case 'R':
/* The GNU linker traditionally uses -R to mean to include
only the symbols from a file. The Solaris linker uses -R
to set the path used by the runtime linker to find
libraries. This is the GNU linker -rpath argument. We
try to support both simultaneously by checking the file
named. If it is a directory, rather than a regular file,
we assume -rpath was meant. */
{
struct stat s;
if (stat (optarg, &s) >= 0
&& ! S_ISDIR (s.st_mode))
{
lang_add_input_file (optarg,
lang_input_file_is_symbols_only_enum,
NULL);
break;
}
}
