Merge tag 'kbuild-6.18-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kbuild/linux

Pull Kbuild updates from Nathan Chancellor:

 - Extend modules.builtin.modinfo to include module aliases from
   MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE for builtin modules so that userspace tools (such
   as kmod) can verify that a particular module alias will be handled by
   a builtin module

 - Bump the minimum version of LLVM for building the kernel to 15.0.0

 - Upgrade several userspace API checks in headers_check.pl to errors

 - Unify and consolidate CONFIG_WERROR / W=e handling

 - Turn assembler and linker warnings into errors with CONFIG_WERROR /
   W=e

 - Respect CONFIG_WERROR / W=e when building userspace programs
   (userprogs)

 - Enable -Werror unconditionally when building host programs
   (hostprogs)

 - Support copy_file_range() and data segment alignment in gen_init_cpio
   to improve performance on filesystems that support reflinks such as
   btrfs and XFS

 - Miscellaneous small changes to scripts and configuration files

 The c_chksum field contains a simple 32-bit unsigned sum of all the
