.exit.text is discarded at run time and there are some references from
that to .exit.data, so we need to discard .exit.data at run time as well.

Fixes these errors:

`.exit.data' referenced in section `.exit.text' of drivers/built-in.o: defined 
in discarded section `.exit.data' of drivers/built-in.o
`.exit.data' referenced in section `.exit.text' of drivers/built-in.o: defined 
in discarded section `.exit.data' of drivers/built-in.o

I have only seen this with an allyesconfig build which fails for other
reasons.
