Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt lists variables used in Makefile whereas Documentation/kbuild/kbuild.txt describes user assignable parameters given via environments or the command line. The top Makefile and arch/*/Makefile accumulate proper linker flags to LDFLAGS_vmlinux. So, users can not override it from the command line. Generally, per-file options are not supposed to be user-assignable. Remove the misleading entry from kbuild.txt. If we need a way to append user-specific flags for linking the kernel, LDFLAGS_KERNEL would be a consistent choice because we already expose LDFLAGS_MODULE counter-part to users.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
