Hi Ingo,

The ever-shortening series. ;) Here is "v7", which is just the remaining
Makefile changes to enable orphan section warnings, now updated to
include ld-option calls.

Thanks for getting this all into -tip!

For the series,
Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers <redacted>

As the recent ppc vdso boogaloo exposed, what about the vdsos?
* arch/x86/entry/vdso/Makefile
* arch/arm/vdso/Makefile
* arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/Makefile
* arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/Makefile

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 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.

Great!

I also double checked that things still build fine with ancient LD.

I'm keeping these latest changes in WIP.core/build for now.

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. :)

OK, cool - I've graduated them over into tip:core/build. :-)

Thanks,

	Ingo
