#1499590 — [PATCH 3.4 090/125] scripts: recordmcount: break hardlinks

From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

3.4.113-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


commit dd39a26538e37f6c6131e829a4a510787e43c783 upstream.

recordmcount edits the file in-place, which can cause problems when
using ccache in hardlink mode.  Arrange for recordmcount to break a
hardlinked object.
