[PATCH v3 mips-next 2/7] MIPS: vmlinux.lds.S: add ".gnu.attributes" to DISCARDS

From: Alexander Lobakin <hidden>
Date: 2021-01-07 11:54:44
Also in: linux-arch, lkml, stable
Subsystem: mips, the rest · Maintainers: Thomas Bogendoerfer, Linus Torvalds

Discard GNU attributes (MIPS FP type, GNU Hash etc.) at link time
as kernel doesn't use it at all.
Solves a dozen of the following ld warnings (one per every file):

mips-alpine-linux-musl-ld: warning: orphan section `.gnu.attributes'
from `arch/mips/kernel/head.o' being placed in section
`.gnu.attributes'
mips-alpine-linux-musl-ld: warning: orphan section `.gnu.attributes'
from `init/main.o' being placed in section `.gnu.attributes'
