Modules with a large number of compilation units may be
exceeding AR and LD command argument list. Handle this gracefully by
writing the long argument list in a file. The command line options
read from file are inserted in place of the original @file option.
The usage is well documented at

First, is this a real problem?
If so, which module is exceeding the command line limit?

Mahesh & I appreciate all of the feedback.
The issue is seen in an Android environment with an out-of-tree
driver. The combination of long path names and a large number
of source files is leading to the issue.
Since Mahesh & I are not Kbuild gurus, is there an alternative
solution to this issue?
