Masahiro Yamada 0aa24a79ee kbuild: do not try to parse *.cmd files for objects provided by compiler
Guenter Roeck reported the build breakage for parisc and csky.
I confirmed nios2 and openrisc are broken as well.

The reason is that they borrow libgcc.a from the toolchains.

For example, see this line in arch/parisc/Makefile:

    LIBGCC          := $(shell $(CC) -print-libgcc-file-name)

Some objects in libgcc.a are linked to vmlinux.o, but they do not have
.*.cmd files.

Obviously, there is no EXPORT_SYMBOL in external objects. Ignore them.

(Most of the architectures import library code into the kernel tree.
Perhaps those 4 architectures can do similar, but I do not know how
challenging it is.)

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.
