Song Liu 65e710899f x86/build: Fix linker fill bytes quirk/incompatibility for ld.lld
With ":text =0xcccc", ld.lld fills unused text area with 0xcccc0000.
Example objdump -D output:

	ffffffff82b04203:       00 00                   add    %al,(%rax)
	ffffffff82b04205:       cc                      int3
	ffffffff82b04206:       cc                      int3
	ffffffff82b04207:       00 00                   add    %al,(%rax)
	ffffffff82b04209:       cc                      int3
	ffffffff82b0420a:       cc                      int3

Replace it with ":text =0xcccccccc", so we get the following instead:

	ffffffff82b04203:       cc                      int3
	ffffffff82b04204:       cc                      int3
	ffffffff82b04205:       cc                      int3
	ffffffff82b04206:       cc                      int3
	ffffffff82b04207:       cc                      int3
	ffffffff82b04208:       cc                      int3

gcc/ld doesn't seem to have the same issue. The generated code stays the
same for gcc/ld.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
