Is this for users or the kernel or both?
Its probably useful for both. The libbsd already uses this stuff.
Is there any documentation for using this?
Before I spend more time on this we have to make a project decision if we want to use linker sets or not. We have to decide if we want to use the lexicographical sorting of GNU ld or not. Linker sets are so wide spread used (e.g. global constructors, Linux, BSD) that I don't see a high risk that a particular architectures doesn't support it. In case a linker lacks support for the lexicographical sorting, then you just have to enumerate the sections by hand. That's the price for using bad tools.
We have to evaluate if a linker set based initialization is a problem for mission-critical or safety-critical applications.
