Commit 40df759e2b9e ("kbuild: Fix build with binutils &lt;= 2.19")
introduced ar-option and KBUILD_ARFLAGS to deal with old binutils.

According to Documentation/process/changes.rst, the current minimal
supported version of binutils is 2.21 so you can assume the 'D' option
is always supported. Not only GNU ar but also llvm-ar supports it.

With the 'D' option hard-coded, there is no more user of ar-option
or KBUILD_ARFLAGS.

Pull modules updates from Jessica Yu:
 "The main bulk of this pull request introduces a new exported symbol
  namespaces feature. The number of exported symbols is increasingly
  growing with each release (we're at about 31k exports as of 5.3-rc7)
  and we currently have no way of visualizing how these symbols are
  "clustered" or making sense of this huge export surface.

  Namespacing exported symbols allows kernel developers to more
  explicitly partition and categorize exported symbols, as well as more
  easily limiting the availability of namespaced symbols to other parts
  of the kernel. For starters, we have introduced the USB_STORAGE
  namespace to demonstrate the API's usage. I have briefly summarized
  the feature and its main motivations in the tag below.

  Summary:

   - Introduce exported symbol namespaces.

     This new feature allows subsystem maintainers to partition and
     categorize their exported symbols into explicit namespaces. Module
     authors are now required to import the namespaces they need.

     Some of the main motivations of this feature include: allowing
     kernel developers to better manage the export surface, allow
     subsystem maintainers to explicitly state that usage of some
     exported symbols should only be limited to certain users (think:
     inter-module or inter-driver symbols, debugging symbols, etc), as
     well as more easily limiting the availability of namespaced symbols
     to other parts of the kernel.

     With the module import requirement, it is also easier to spot the
     misuse of exported symbols during patch review.

     Two new macros are introduced: EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() and
     EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(). The API is thoroughly documented in
     Documentation/kbuild/namespaces.rst.

   - Some small code and kbuild cleanups here and there"

* tag 'modules-for-v5.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeyu/linux:
  module: Remove leftover '#undef' from export header
  module: remove unneeded casts in cmp_name()

  module: remove redundant 'depends on MODULES'

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "Although there isn't tonnes of code in terms of line count, there are
  a fair few headline features which I've noted both in the tag and also
  in the merge commits when I pulled everything together.

  The part I'm most pleased with is that we had 35 contributors this
  time around, which feels like a big jump from the usual small group of
  core arm64 arch developers. Hopefully they all enjoyed it so much that
  they'll continue to contribute, but we'll see.

  It's probably worth highlighting that we've pulled in a branch from
  the risc-v folks which moves our CPU topology code out to where it can
  be shared with others.

  Summary:

   - 52-bit virtual addressing in the kernel

   - New ABI to allow tagged user pointers to be dereferenced by
     syscalls

   - Early RNG seeding by the bootloader

   - Improve robustness of SMP boot

   - Fix TLB invalidation in light of recent architectural
     clarifications

   - Support for i.MX8 DDR PMU

   - Remove direct LSE instruction patching in favour of static keys

   - Function error injection using kprobes

   - Support for the PPTT "thread" flag introduced by ACPI 6.3

   - Move PSCI idle code into proper cpuidle driver

   - Relaxation of implicit I/O memory barriers

   - Build with RELR relocations when toolchain supports them

   - Numerous cleanups and non-critical fixes"

   - 52-bit virtual addressing in the kernel

   - New ABI to allow tagged user pointers to be dereferenced by
     syscalls

   - Early RNG seeding by the bootloader

   - Improve robustness of SMP boot

   - Fix TLB invalidation in light of recent architectural
     clarifications

   - Support for i.MX8 DDR PMU

   - Remove direct LSE instruction patching in favour of static keys

   - Function error injection using kprobes

   - Support for the PPTT "thread" flag introduced by ACPI 6.3

   - Move PSCI idle code into proper cpuidle driver

   - Relaxation of implicit I/O memory barriers

   - Build with RELR relocations when toolchain supports them

   - Numerous cleanups and non-critical fixes"

A script that uses the '&lt;module&gt;.ns_deps' files generated by modpost to
automatically add the required symbol namespace dependencies to each
module.

Usage:
1) Move some symbols to a namespace with EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() or define
   DEFAULT_SYMBOL_NAMESPACE
2) Run 'make' (or 'make modules') and get warnings about modules not
   importing that namespace.
3) Run 'make nsdeps' to automatically add required import statements
   to said modules.

This makes it easer for subsystem maintainers to introduce and maintain
symbol namespaces into their codebase.
