Merge tag 'kbuild-fixes-v5.6-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild

Pull Kbuild fixes from Masahiro Yamada:

 - fix __uint128_t capability test in Kconfig when GCC that defaults to
   32-bit is used to build the 64-bit kernel

 - suppress new noisy Clang warnings -Wpointer-to-enum-cast

 - move the namespace field in Module.symvers for the backward
   compatibility reason for the depmod tool

 - use available compression for initramdisk when INTRAMFS_SOURCE is
   defined, which was the original behavior

 - fix modpost to handle correct large section numbers when it refers to
   modversion CRCs and module namespaces

 - fix comments and documents
