Subject[PATCH 2/2] kbuild: handle excessively long argument lists
Date
From: Mahesh Kumar Kalikot Veetil <mkalikot@codeaurora.org>

Modules with a large number of compilation units may be
exceeding AR and LD command argument list. Handle this gracefully by
writing the long argument list in a file. The command line options
read from file are inserted in place of the original @file option.

The usage is well documented at
https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/File-Function.html
