Commit ac55182899 ("modpost: i2c aliases need no trailing wildcard")
removed the wildcard at the end of the I2C module aliases because I2C
devices have no IDs so the aliases are just arbitrary device names.
This is also true for OF modaliases since a compatible string is used to
define a specific IP hardware block. So the modalias should match a
specific compatible string and not attempt to match a compatible string
whose name matches the beginning of another one.
For example, the following driver module:
$ modinfo cros_ec_keyb | grep alias
alias: platform:cros-ec-keyb
alias: of:N*T*Cgoogle,cros-ec-keyb*
will be tried to be loaded for an alias of:N*T*Cgoogle,cros-ec-keyb-v2
but there could be a different driver that supports the device for that
compatible string so it's better to remove the trailing wildcard for OF.
Also, remove the word "always" from the add_wildcard() function comment
since that was carried from the time where a wildcard was always added
at the end of the module alias for all the devices.

In Python3+ print is a function so the old syntax is not correct

The ld-version.sh script doesn't handle versions with large (>= 10) 3rd
version components, because the 2nd component is only multiplied by 10
times that of the 3rd component.
For example the following version string:
GNU ld (Codescape GNU Tools 2015.06-05 for MIPS MTI Linux) 2.24.90
gives a bogus version number:
20000000
+ 2400000
+ 900000 = 23300000
Breakage, confusion and mole-whacking ensues.
Increase the multipliers of the first two version components by a factor
of 10 to give space for a 3rd components of up to 99, and update the
sole user of ld-ifversion (MIPS VDSO) accordingly.

that was introduced with commit 656ee82cc8 ("kbuild: create new

So this patch just adds the AFLAGS_REMOVE option which works the same
like CFLAGS_REMOVE.

Russell King found that he had weird side effects when compiling the kernel
with hard linked ccache. The reason was that recordmcount modified the
kernel in place via mmap, and when a file gets modified twice by
recordmcount, it will complain about it. To fix this issue, Russell wrote a
patch that checked if the file was hard linked more than once and would
unlink it if it was.
Linus Torvalds was not happy with the fact that recordmcount does this in
place modification. Instead of doing the unlink only if the file has two or
more hard links, it does the unlink all the time. In otherwords, it always
does a copy if it changed something. That is, it does the write out if a
change was made.

Add support to find string-similar symbols. When option --sim SYM is
specified, checkkconfigsymbols.py will print at most 10 symbols defined
in Kconfig that are string similar to SYM in the following format:
Similar symbols: $COMMA_SEPARATED_LIST_OF_SYMBOLS
Note, if no similar symbols are found it is indicated as follows:
Similar symbols: no similar symbols found
Since the implemented functionality is also useful when searching the
entire source or when diffing two commits, a list of similar symbols is
printed unconditionally with the other data. In order to make the
output more readable, the format now looks as follows:
$UNDEFINED_SYMBOL
Referencing files: $COMMA_SEPARATED_LIST_OF_FILES
Similar symbols: $COMMA_SEPARATED_LIST_OF_SYMBOLS
[Optional with '--find']
