LD error building uboot

[lash]

Following the instructions here on an archlinux:

https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/U-Boot

For arm-trusted-firmware v2.4 I am getting:

Code:

$ make PLAT=sun50i_a64 -j4 -k
Building sun50i_a64

great that worked.

building uboot also failed. the version string passed to the pylibftd module generation in scripts/dtc didnt get generated properly because the makefile vars were not passed down. In lieu of figuring out how to pass them on (and anyway the sublevel var was empry), I just added this to scripts/dtc/Makefile and it built:

VERSION = 2021
PATCHLEVEL = 07
SUBLEVEL = 00
EXTRAVERSION = -rc4
