[PATCH] vmlinux.lds.h: catch .bss..L* sections into BSS")

[Christophe Leroy]

Commit 9a427556fb8e ("vmlinux.lds.h: catch compound literals into
data and BSS") added catches for .data..L* and .rodata..L* but missed
.bss..L*

Since commit 5431fdd2c181 ("ptrace: Convert ptrace_attach() to use
lock guards") the following appears at build:

  LD      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1
powerpc64-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.bss..Lubsan_data33' from `kernel/ptrace.o' being placed in section `.bss..Lubsan_data33'
  NM      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.syms
  KSYMS   .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.S
  AS      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.S
  LD      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2
powerpc64-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.bss..Lubsan_data33' from `kernel/ptrace.o' being placed in section `.bss..Lubsan_data33'
  NM      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.syms
  KSYMS   .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.S
  AS      .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.S
  LD      vmlinux
powerpc64-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.bss..Lubsan_data33' from `kernel/ptrace.o' being placed in section `.bss..Lubsan_data33'

Lets add .bss..L* to BSS_MAIN macro to catch those sections into BSS.

Applied to the asm-generic tree, thanks!
