Please replace this patch with the attached series. While this patch
does fix this particular issue, commit 397586506c3d ("modpost: Add
'.ltext' and '.ltext.*' to TEXT_SECTIONS") is also needed to resolve all
errors with clang-18+ and ARCH=um. That commit needs a few (reasonable,
imo) prerequisite patches to apply cleanly without causing any build
warnings, as I point out on the 6.6 patch.

If there are any issues, please let me know.

Cheers,
Nathan
