From: Bruce Ashfield <[email protected]>

There were two copies of this patch floating around, and the merged
variant has the copy in the wrong place.

module.lds is only created during modules_prepare, and that target is
not invoked during our main build of the kernel. We aren't about to
change the kernel build (there's no need), so we move the copy into
the compile_kernelmodules task. After that runs, we have module.lds
availble to copy.

This has been tested against clean kernel + out of tree module
builds, and the dependencies are correct that the file is copied
before the out of tree module build starts.

v2:

I had done my test builds on a branch that didn't actually contain my
change, hence why 5.8 builds where blowing up.

I switched to the if [ ] model, since that doesn't run afoul of the
exit handler. I do find it curious that the compile task behaves so
differently than the install ones (even with set +e, I couldn't use
the [ ] method.

Anyway, this is tested against 5.8 and 5.10 + eternal module builds
