Description

At present, we rely in the build on kernel modules being relocatable objects suitable for use (almost) as link-editor input. We do this to build "shared object" versions of various kernel modules for the purposes of symbol checking.

We should build these "shared object"s from the actual input objects not the kernel module, to prepare for #10581
