Merge tag 'lto-v5.12-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux
Pull LTO fix from Kees Cook: "It seems that there is a bug in ld.bfd when doing module section merging. As explicit merging is only needed for LTO, the work-around is to only do it under LTO, leaving the original section layout choices alone under normal builds: - Only perform explicit module section merges under LTO (Sean Christopherson)" * tag 'lto-v5.12-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux: kbuild: lto: Merge module sections if and only if CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is enabled
