In general, you might find the compilation unit that already contains the symbol of the Linux kernel by applying `find` to all object files of your target, and by combining `nm` and `grep` to find the locations. You can use the flag `--print-file-name` when calling `nm` to include the corresponding filename in every match. In the concrete case, I assume it is a combination of macros, like `IRQCHIP_DECLARE`, and the ones it depends on. Probably you've included a Linux kernel source file with interrupt controller definitions, which is in most cases not a good idea.
