Arvind Sankar 587af649bc x86/build: Move max-page-size option to LDFLAGS_vmlinux
This option is only required for vmlinux on 64-bit, to enforce 2MiB
alignment, so set it in LDFLAGS_vmlinux instead of KBUILD_LDFLAGS. Also
drop the ld-option check: this option was added in binutils-2.18 and all
the other places that use it already don't have the check.

This reduces the size of the intermediate ELF files
arch/x86/boot/setup.elf and arch/x86/realmode/rm/realmode.elf by about
2MiB each. The binary versions are unchanged.

Move the LDFLAGS settings to all be together and just after CFLAGS
settings are done.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
