At this point, I don't think it's the correct fix. I don't see why it
should be the responsibility of the linker script to include
env/embedded.o. Almost no other architecture has env/embedded.o
referenced in its linker script. Only a few m68k platforms, with custom
linker script in their include/configs/.h file include env/embedded.o
in their linker script, plus one Freescale platform.

Again, changing extra- to obj- in env/Makefile also fixes the issue.
