Geert Uytterhoeven reported that commit 4e244c10eab3 ("kconfig: remove
unneeded symbol_empty variable") changed the default value of
CONFIG_LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT from 12 to 0.
As it turned out, this is an undefined behavior because sym_calc_value()
stopped setting the sym->curr.tri field for 'int', 'hex', and 'string'
symbols.
This commit restores the original behavior, where 'int', 'hex', 'string'
symbols are interpreted as false if used in boolean contexts.
CONFIG_LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT will default to 12 again, irrespective
of CONFIG_BASE_SMALL. Presumably, this is not the intended behavior,
as already reported [1], but this is another issue that should be
addressed by a separate patch.

The new installkernel application that is now included in systemd-udev
package allows installation although destination files are already present
in the boot directory of the kernel package, but is failing with the
implemented workaround for the old installkernel application from grubby
package.
For the new installkernel application, as Davide says:
<<The %post currently does a shuffling dance before calling installkernel.
This isn't actually necessary afaict, and the current implementation
ends up triggering downstream issues such as
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/29568
This commit simplifies the logic to remove the shuffling. For reference,
the original logic was added in commit 3c9c7a14b627("rpm-pkg: add %post
section to create initramfs and grub hooks").>>
But we need to keep the old behavior as well, because the old installkernel
application from grubby package, does not allow this simplification and
we need to be backward compatible to avoid issues with the different
packages.
Mimic Fedora shipping process and store vmlinuz, config amd System.map
in the module directory instead of the boot directory. In this way, we will
avoid the commented problem for all the cases, because the new destination
files are not going to exist in the boot directory of the kernel package.
Replace installkernel tool with kernel-install tool, because the latter is
more complete.
Besides, after installkernel tool execution, check to complete if the
correct package files vmlinuz, System.map and config files are present
in /boot directory, and if necessary, copy manually for install operation.
In this way, take into account if files were not previously copied from
/usr/lib/kernel/install.d/* scripts and if the suitable files for the
requested package are present (it could be others if the rpm files were
replace with a new pacakge with the same release and a different build).
Tested with Fedora 38, Fedora 39, RHEL 9, Oracle Linux 9.3,
openSUSE Tumbleweed and openMandrive ROME, using dnf/zypper and rpm tools.

Aiden Leong reported modpost fails to build on macOS since commit
16a473f60edc ("modpost: inform compilers that fatal() never returns"):
scripts/mod/modpost.c:93:21: error: aliases are not supported on darwin
Nathan's research indicates that Darwin seems to support weak aliases
at least [1]. Although the situation might be improved in future Clang
versions, we can achieve a similar outcome without relying on it.
This commit makes fatal() a macro of error() + exit(1) in modpost.h, as
compilers recognize that exit() never returns.

After the linked LLVM change, building ARCH=um defconfig results in a
segmentation fault in modpost. Prior to commit a23e7584ecf3 ("modpost:
unify 'sym' and 'to' in default_mismatch_handler()"), there was a
warning:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(__ex_table+0x88): Section mismatch in reference to the .ltext:(unknown)
WARNING: modpost: The relocation at __ex_table+0x88 references
section ".ltext" which is not in the list of
authorized sections. If you're adding a new section
and/or if this reference is valid, add ".ltext" to the
list of authorized sections to jump to on fault.
This can be achieved by adding ".ltext" to
OTHER_TEXT_SECTIONS in scripts/mod/modpost.c.
The linked LLVM change moves global objects to the '.ltext' (and
'.ltext.*' with '-ffunction-sections') sections with '-mcmodel=large',
which ARCH=um uses. These sections should be handled just as '.text'
and '.text.*' are, so add them to TEXT_SECTIONS.
