Older kernel (4.4.x) has three toolchain issues on Ubuntu Noble:
- dtc yylloc multiple definition (fixed by HOSTCFLAGS+=-fcommon)
- ld rejects -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions (fixed by clearing LDFLAGS)
- arm64 proc.S uses deprecated .section syntax rejected by binutils 2.42
(fixed by patching to use modern 'ax' flags)
The issue can be reproduced with the command:
$ bitbake mc:qemuarm64-noble:linux-cip-arm64

This kernel patch release is quite old. Did you check if v4.4.302-cip99
is also affected?

And that although this is an unsupported configuration (arm64 support
got added to CIP with 4.19 only).
So, don't do that.

v4.4.302-cip99 is also affected. It has ld rejects -Wl,-Bsymbolic-
functions, and arm64 proc.S syntax problems.

Then send patches upstream, not to isar, disable this inofficial
configuration, or use a (cip-)kernel that supports it. This is just an
exemplary recipe, not worth being patched.
