The gendwarfksyms is unrelated.

I removed unnecessary information.

I left only the following description.

------------>8------------------
kbuild: rename .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms0.syms to .tmp_vmlinux0.syms

Change the naming for consistency.

While at this, fix the comments in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh.
------------>8------------------


Applied to linux-kbuild.
Thanks.
