The --backup option was removed with the following commit:
aa8b3e64fd ("objtool: Create backup on error and print args")
... which tied the backup functionality to --verbose, and only for
warnings/errors.
It's a bit inelegant and out of scope to tie that to --verbose.
Bring back the old --backup option, but with the new behavior: only on
warnings/errors, and print the args to make it easier to recreate.

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.
