    kbuild: remove internally used LDFLAGS_vmlinux from kbuild.txt · bd0f98eb

    Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt lists variables used in Makefile
    whereas Documentation/kbuild/kbuild.txt describes user assignable
    parameters given via environments or the command line.
    
    The top Makefile and arch/*/Makefile accumulate proper linker flags to
    LDFLAGS_vmlinux.  So, users can not override it from the command line.
    Generally, per-file options are not supposed to be user-assignable.
    Remove the misleading entry from kbuild.txt.
    
    If we need a way to append user-specific flags for linking the kernel,
    LDFLAGS_KERNEL would be a consistent choice because we already expose
    LDFLAGS_MODULE counter-part to users.
