[PATCH 02/15] kbuild: fix LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION with GNU gold

From: samitolvanen@google.com (Sami Tolvanen)
Date: 2017-11-03 17:17:17
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: generic include/asm header files, the rest · Maintainers: Arnd Bergmann, Linus Torvalds

Don't remove .head.text or .exitcall.exit when linking with --gc-sections,
and include .init.text.* in .init.text and .init.rodata.* in .init.rodata.
