When building with CONFIG_LD_ORPHAN_WARN after selecting CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_LD_ORPHAN_WARN, there are several warnings from arch/s390/boot/head.o due to the unhandled presence of '.rela' sections: s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.iplt' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.head.text' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.got' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.data' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.data.rel.ro' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.iplt' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.head.text' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.got' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.data' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn' s390-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.rela.data.rel.ro' from `arch/s390/boot/head.o' being placed in section `.rela.dyn' These sections are unneeded for the decompressor and they are not emitted in the binary currently. In a manner similar to other architectures, coalesce the sections into '.rela.dyn' and ensure it is zero sized, which is a safe/tested approach versus full discard.
