Subject: kbuild: do not remove 'linux' link in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh
X-Git-Tag: v5.15-rc1~98^2~5

kbuild: do not remove 'linux' link in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh

arch/um/Makefile passes the -f option to the ln command:

  linux: vmlinux
          @echo '  LINK $@'
          $(Q)ln -f $< $@

So, the hard link is always re-created, and the old one is removed
anyway.
