Merge tag 'core-build-2020-10-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull orphan section checking from Ingo Molnar:
 "Orphan link sections were a long-standing source of obscure bugs,
  because the heuristics that various linkers & compilers use to handle
  them (include these bits into the output image vs discarding them
  silently) are both highly idiosyncratic and also version dependent.

  Instead of this historically problematic mess, this tree by Kees Cook
  (et al) adds build time asserts and build time warnings if there's any
  orphan section in the kernel or if a section is not sized as expected.

  And because we relied on so many silent assumptions in this area, fix
  a metric ton of dependencies and some outright bugs related to this,
  before we can finally enable the checks on the x86, ARM and ARM64
  platforms"
