This is due to the SUSE specific section as you expected.
We ignore sections named ".comment" but not ".comment" sections

On a related note, I see tons of the following warnings cross-building for
MIPS:

WARNING: init/mounts.o (.mdebug.abi32): unexpected non-allocatable section.
Did you forget to use "ax"/"aw" in a .S file? Note that for example <linux/init.h> contains section definitions for use in .S files.
WARNING: init/mounts.o (.pdr): unexpected non-allocatable section.
Did you forget to use "ax"/"aw" in a .S file? Note that for example <linux/init.h> contains section definitions for use in .S files.

I added ".pdr" and ".mdebug*" to the whitelist;  the resulting kernels still
work.  (gcc-4.3.3, binutils-2.19.1)


I too think they are needed.  Are you going to prepare a patch?
