CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX: cleanup. We have CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX, which three archs define to the string "_". But Al Viro broke this in "consolidate cond_syscall and SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations" (in linux-next), and he's not the first to do so. Using CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is awkward, since we usually just want to prefix it so something. So various places define helpers which are defined to nothing if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX isn't set: 1) include/asm-generic/unistd.h defines __SYMBOL_PREFIX. 2) include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h defines VMLINUX_SYMBOL(sym) 3) include/linux/export.h defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX. 4) include/linux/kernel.h defines SYMBOL_PREFIX (which differs from #7) 5) kernel/modsign_certificate.S defines ASM_SYMBOL(sym) 6) scripts/modpost.c defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX 7) scripts/Makefile.lib defines SYMBOL_PREFIX on the commandline if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is set, so that we have a non-string version for pasting. (arch/h8300/include/asm/linkage.h defines SYMBOL_NAME(), too). Let's solve this properly: 1) No more generic prefix, just CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX. 2) Make linux/export.h usable from asm. 3) Define VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR(). 4) Make everyone use them.

KEYS: correct alignment of system_certificate_list content in assembly file Apart from data-type specific alignment constraints, there are also architecture-specific alignment requirements. For example, on s390 symbols must be on even addresses implying a 2-byte alignment. If the system_certificate_list_end symbol is on an odd address and if this address is loaded, the least-significant bit is ignored. As a result, the load_system_certificate_list() fails to load the certificates because of a wrong certificate length calculation. To be safe, align system_certificate_list on an 8-byte boundary. Also improve the length calculation of the system_certificate_list content. Introduce a system_certificate_list_size (8-byte aligned because of unsigned long) variable that stores the length. Let the linker calculate this size by introducing a start and end label for the certificate content.

kernel/system_certificate.S: use real contents instead of macro GLOBAL() If a macro is only used within 2 times, and also its contents are within 2 lines, recommend to expand it to shrink code line. For our case, the macro is not portable either: some architectures' assembler may use another character to mark newline in a macro (e.g. '`' for arc), which will cause issue. If still want to use macro and let it portable enough, it will also need include additional header file (e.g "#include <linux/linkage.h>", although it also need be fixed).
