From: Ilya Leoshkevich <iii@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit db16c1fe92d7ba7d39061faef897842baee2c887 upstream. [backported for dependency only extra_paholeopt variable setup and usage, we don't want floats generated in 5.10] pahole v1.21 supports the --btf_gen_floats flag, which makes it generate the information about the floating-point types [1]. Adjust link-vmlinux.sh to pass this flag to pahole in case it's supported, which is determined using a simple version check.
