    arm64: vdso: use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to link VDSO · 691efbed
    Masahiro Yamada authored
    We use $(LD) to link vmlinux, modules, decompressors, etc.
    
    VDSO is the only exceptional case where $(CC) is used as the linker
    driver, but I do not know why we need to do so. VDSO uses a special
    linker script, and does not link standard libraries at all.
    
    I changed the Makefile to use $(LD) rather than $(CC). I tested this,
    and VDSO worked for me.
    
    Users will be able to use their favorite linker (e.g. lld instead of
    of bfd) by passing LD= from the command line.
    
    My plan is to rewrite all VDSO Makefiles to use $(LD), then delete
    cc-ldoption.
