Re: [PATCH] Fix ld-version.sh script if LLD was built with LLD_VENDOR

Hi Bernhard,

I have added the ClangBuiltLinux mailing list, kbuild mailing list, and
Masahiro and Nick to CC. Maybe ld-version.sh and cc-version.sh should be
added to a MAINTAINERS entry to make sure we get CC'd (I can send one
along tomorrow).

TIL about LLD_VENDOR...

I am not sure what a better fix would be of the top of my head but
wouldn't it be better to avoid the duplication? This diff below works
for me with or without LLD_VENDOR defined.
