Hi Linus,

newer binutils (current CVS version and the soon to be release 2.11)
don't support "ld -oformat binary" anymore. Instead two dashes should
be used ("ld --oformat binary"). This works with both old and new
binutils.

Please apply the appended patch which fixes all occurences in the
kernel.

Thanks,
Andreas
