When compiling the kernel with -ffunction-sections enabled, the split()
function gets compiled into the .text.split section. In some cases it
can even be cloned into .text.split.constprop.0 or .text.split.isra.0.
However, .text.split.* is already reserved for use by the Clang
-fsplit-machine-functions flag, which is used by AutoFDO. That may
place part of a function's code in a .text.split.<func> section.
This naming conflict causes the vmlinux linker script to wrongly place
split() with other .text.split.* code, rather than where it belongs with
regular text.
Fix it by renaming split() to split_strings().
Fixes: 6568f14cb5 ("vmlinux.lds: Exclude .text.startup and .text.exit from TEXT_MAIN")

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 reStructuredText 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.
