When building vmlinux, an additional section named ".text.__ashldi3" with type PROGBITS is emitted in vmlinux. It is causing issues because since it is not within the ".text" section, its memory is not reserved and get corrupted. Any idea what could cause the creation of section ".text.__ashldi3" outside of section ".text" ? Alternatively, is there a way to merge section ".text.__ashldi3" inside section ".text" ?
