[PATCH 09/15] arm64: keep .altinstructions and .altinstr_replacement

From: samitolvanen@google.com (Sami Tolvanen)
Date: 2017-11-03 17:15:33
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Linus Torvalds

Make sure the linker doesn't remove .altinstructions or
.altinstr_replacement when CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is
enabled.
