# Generate section listing all symbols and add it into vmlinux
# It's a three step process:
# 1) Link .tmp_vmlinux1 so it has all symbols and sections,
# 1) Link .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1 so it has all symbols and sections,
# but __kallsyms is empty.
# Running kallsyms on that gives us .tmp_kallsyms1.o with
# the right size
# 2) Link .tmp_vmlinux2 so it now has a __kallsyms section of

# From here, we generate a correct .tmp_kallsyms2.o
