arm64: link with -z norelro for LLD or aarch64-elf
With GNU binutils 2.35+, linking with BFD produces warnings for vmlinux:
aarch64-linux-gnu-ld: warning: -z norelro ignored
BFD can produce this warning when the target emulation mode does not
support RELRO program headers, and -z relro or -z norelro is passed.
Alan Modra clarifies:
The default linker emulation for an aarch64-linux ld.bfd is
-maarch64linux, the default for an aarch64-elf linker is
-maarch64elf. They are not equivalent. If you choose -maarch64elf
you get an emulation that doesn't support -z relro.
The ARCH=arm64 kernel prefers -maarch64elf, but may fall back to
-maarch64linux based on the toolchain configuration.
LLD will always create RELRO program header regardless of target
emulation.
To avoid the above warning when linking with BFD, pass -z norelro only
when linking with LLD or with -maarch64linux.
