Hi,
Here are a couple of updates for the new build processes. I think
these could go in 4.9 because nobody has started using them seriously
yet, but on the other hand that is also a reason they can probably
wait until 4.10.
Thanks,
Nick

THIN_ARCHIVES builds archives for built-in.o targets, have it build
multi-y targets as archives as well.
This saves another ~15% of the size of intermediate artifacts in the
build tree. After this patch, the linker is only used in final link,
and special cases like vdsos.

When CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is enabled we must ensure
that we still keep various programatically-accessed tables.
[npiggin: Fold Paul's patches into one, and add a few more tables.
diff symbol tables of allyesconfig with/without -gc-sections shows up
lost tables quite easily.]
