#     x86: link vdso and boot with -z noexecstack --no-warn-rwx-segments
#     
#     Users of GNU ld (BFD) from binutils 2.39+ will observe multiple
#     instances of a new warning when linking kernels in the form:
#     
#       ld: warning: arch/x86/boot/pmjump.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack
#       ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker
#       ld: warning: arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions
#     
#     Generally, we would like to avoid the stack being executable.  Because
#     there could be a need for the stack to be executable, assembler sources
#     have to opt-in to this security feature via explicit creation of the
#     .note.GNU-stack feature (which compilers create by default) or command
#     line flag --noexecstack.  Or we can simply tell the linker the
#     production of such sections is irrelevant and to link the stack as
#     --noexecstack.
#     
#     LLVM's LLD linker defaults to -z noexecstack, so this flag isn't
#     strictly necessary when linking with LLD, only BFD, but it doesn't hurt
#     to be explicit here for all linkers IMO.  --no-warn-rwx-segments is
#     currently BFD specific and only available in the current latest release,
#     so it's wrapped in an ld-option check.
#     
#     While the kernel makes extensive usage of ELF sections, it doesn't use
#     permissions from ELF segments.
