Subject: [PATCH v3 3/3] btf: Avoid weak external references

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

If the BTF code is enabled in the build configuration, the start/stop
BTF markers are guaranteed to exist in the final link but not during the
first linker pass.

Avoid GOT based relocations to these markers in the final executable by
providing preliminary definitions that will be used by the first linker
pass, and superseded by the actual definitions in the subsequent ones.

Make the preliminary definitions dependent on CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF so
that inadvertent references to this section will trigger a link failure
if they occur in code that does not honour CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF.

Note that Clang will notice that taking the address of__start_BTF cannot
yield NULL any longer, so testing for that condition is no longer
needed.
