[ Upstream commit bd71558d585ac61cfd799db7f25e78dca404dd7a ]

Since binutils 2.39, ld will print a warning if any stack section is
executable, which is the default for stack sections on files without a
.note.GNU-stack section.

This was fixed for x86 in commit ffcf9c5700e4 ("x86: link vdso and boot with -z noexecstack --no-warn-rwx-segments"),
but remained broken for UML, resulting in several warnings:

/usr/bin/ld: warning: arch/x86/um/vdso/vdso.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack
/usr/bin/ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker
/usr/bin/ld: warning: .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1 has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions
/usr/bin/ld: warning: .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack
/usr/bin/ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker
/usr/bin/ld: warning: .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2 has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions
/usr/bin/ld: warning: .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms2.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack
/usr/bin/ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker
/usr/bin/ld: warning: vmlinux has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions

Link both the VDSO and vmlinux with -z noexecstack, fixing the warnings
about .note.GNU-stack sections. In addition, pass --no-warn-rwx-segments
to dodge the remaining warnings about LOAD segments with RWX permissions
in the kallsyms objects. (Note that this flag is apparently not
available on lld, so hide it behind a test for BFD, which is what the
x86 patch does.)
