We don't want to depend on the linker's orphan section placement
heuristics as these can vary between linkers, and may change between
versions. All sections need to be explicitly handled in the linker
script.
With all sections now handled, enable orphan section warnings.

We don't want to depend on the linker's orphan section placement
heuristics as these can vary between linkers, and may change between
versions. All sections need to be explicitly handled in the linker
script.
Specifically, this would have made a recently fixed bug very obvious:
ld: warning: orphan section `.fixup' from `arch/arm/lib/copy_from_user.o' being placed in section `.fixup'
With all sections handled, enable orphan section warning.

With LLVM=1 and GCOV_KERNEL/GCOV_PROFILE_ALL enabled, there are
.eh_frame sections created. I see that KASAN and KCSAN currently discard
them. Does GCOV actually need them or should it also discard?
Thanks.

Also, with LLD 10.0.1 which is going to be the minimum supported
version, the relocation sections etc still generate warnings.

Kees, will these patches DTRT for the vDSO builds? I will be unable to test
these patches on that old system until tomorrow the earliest.
I'm keeping these latest changes in WIP.core/build for now.

I would like to see VDSO done next, but it's entirely separate from
this series. This series only touches the core kernel build (i.e. via the
interactions with scripts/link-vmlinux.sh) or the boot stubs. So there
is no impact on VDSO linking.

They should be safe to land in -next, which is important so we can shake
out any other sneaky sections that all our existing testing hasn't
found. :)
