Despite being unused these should also get a CRC calculated.
Primarily I view this as a consistency thing. But I also think this is
one of the reasons why __crc_* need to be weak (which I think should be
avoided, and hence we should have the goal to eliminate this so that
failure to calculate a proper CRC for a symbol causes the build to fail).

The genksyms keyword gperf hash provides a function is_reserved_word.
genksyms #includes the resulting generated file keywords.c, so the
function gets used only in the same source file that defines it. Mark
is_reserved_word static, and regenerate the corresponding generated
file.

This reverts commit ad7a953c52.
And commit: ("allow stripping of generated symbols under CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL")
9bb482476c
These stripping patches has caused a set of issues:
1) People have reported compatibility issues with binutils due to
lack of support for `--strip-unneeded-symbols' with objcopy 2.15.92.0.2
Reported by: Wenji
2) ccache and distcc no longer works as expeced
Reported by: Ted, Roland, + others
3) The installed modules increased a lot in size

Building upon parts of the module stripping patch, this patch
introduces similar stripping for vmlinux when CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y.
Using CONFIG_KALLSYMS_STRIP_GENERATED reduces the overhead of
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL from 245k/310k to 65k/80k for the (i386/x86-64)
kernels I tested with.
The patch also does away with the need to special case the kallsyms-
internal symbols by making them available even in the first linking
stage.
While it is a generated file, the patch includes the changes to
scripts/genksyms/keywords.c_shipped, as I'm unsure what the procedure
here is.

This patch adds the ability to mark symbols that will be changed in the
future, so that kernel modules that don't include MODULE_LICENSE("GPL")
and use the symbols, will be flagged and printed out to the system log.

Generate _shipped files so the genksyms change in previous commit is enabled.
The files are generated with latest versions of the tools:
bison (GNU Bison) 2.0
flex version 2.5.4
GNU gperf 3.0.1

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
