Requires dropping the .got section.  I couldn't find how it was used in
the vdso32.

Not sure removing .got is a good idea or not.  Otherwise I observe the
following link error:
powerpc-linux-gnu-ld: warning: orphan section `.got' from 
`arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso32/sigtramp.o' being placed in section `.got'
powerpc-linux-gnu-ld: _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ not defined in linker created .got
powerpc-linux-gnu-ld: final link failed: bad value

sigtramp.c doesn't mention anything from the GOT AFAICT, and doesn't
look like it contains relocations that do, so I'm not sure where
references to _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ are coming from.

I'm getting the same but only when building for PPC64.
I don't get any reference to sigtramp.o though:

powerpc64-linux-ld: _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ not defined in linker created .got
powerpc64-linux-ld: final link failed: Bad value

(GCC 8.1, Binutils 2.30)

So it seems that the got section is being created by the linker. Don't know why though.


With GCC 10.1, binutils 2.34 I get:

powerpc64-linux-ld: final link failed: bad value

I can't see any .branch_lt section when objdumping sigtramp.o or any other .o

When I move sigtramp.o at the end of the definition of obj-vdso32 in Makefile, I then get:

powerpc64-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.branch_lt' from `arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso32/gettimeofday.o' being placed in section `.branch_lt'
powerpc64-linux-ld: _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ not defined in linker created .got

gettimeofday.o now being the first object in obj-vdso32
