Commit d50f21091358 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot Authenticode EDK2 compat") aligned .modinfo because it appeared in the x86_64 compressed kernel image after commit 3e86e4d74c04 ("kbuild: keep .modinfo section in vmlinux.unstripped"), breaking boot. Commit 8678591b4746 ("kbuild: Split .modinfo out from ELF_DETAILS") properly addresses .modinfo appearing in unexpected contexts like compressed images by moving it out of ELF_DETAILS and explicitly specifying its location in every architecture's vmlinux linker script or discarding it where it may appear elsewhere. Effectively revert commit d50f21091358 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot Authenticode EDK2 compat") and its follow up fix, commit a26a6c93edfe ("kbuild: Strip trailing padding bytes from modules.builtin.modinfo"), as they are no longer necessary in the current tree. This simplifies future cleanups. Reviewed-by: Nicolas Schier <n.schier@fritz.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260918005142.GA1585590@ax162/ Signed-off-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org>
