kbuild: do not set -w for vmlinux.o modpost
The -w option is meaningless for the first pass of modpost (vmlinux.o). We know there are unresolved symbols in vmlinux.o, hence we skip check_exports() and other checks when mod->is_vmlinux is set. See the following part in the for-loop. if (mod->is_vmlinux || mod->from_dump) continue; Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
