Hi Tommi,

This appears to be fixed by commit 0294e6f4a000 ("kbuild: simplify
ld-option implementation") upstream. Could you test the attached
backport and make sure everything works on your end? Assuming that it
does, I will test the other stable releases and see if this is needed
and send those backports along.

Thanks and sorry for the trouble!
Nathan
