Without this option, binutils 2.28 and newer tries to create a program
header segment due to PT_INTERP, and the link fails because there is no
space for it.

   A recent binutils commit:

     ld: arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.pseries: Not enough room for program headers, try linking with -N
     ld: final link failed: Bad value
