Commit 5cc1247204 ("kbuild: add CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP expert option")
mentioned that "the .map file can be rather large (several MB), and
that's a waste of space when one isn't interested in these things."
If that is the case, generating map files for the intermediate
tmp_vmlinux* files is also a waste of space. It is unlikely that
anyone would be interested in the .tmp_vmlinux*.map files.
This commit stops passing the -Map= option when linking the .tmp_vmlinux*
intermediates.
I also hard-coded the file name 'vmlinux.map' instead of ${output}.map
because a later commit will introduce vmlinux.unstripped but I want to
keep the current name of the map file.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
