for due diligence, adding those two changes breaks building like so:
  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
.../bfin-uclinux/bin/ld.real: cannot find _
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

and if we look at the generated vmlinux.lds, we indeed see the quotes
causing problems:
  . = ALIGN(8); "_"__lock_text_start = .; *(.spinlock.text)
"_"__lock_text_end = .;
  . = ALIGN(8); "_"__kprobes_text_start = .; *(.kprobes.text)
"_"__kprobes_text_end = .;
