4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit dad2232844073295c64e9cc2d734a0ade043e0f6 upstream. Commit e41f501d3912 ("vmlinux.lds: account for destructor sections") added '.text.exit' to EXIT_TEXT which is discarded at link time by default. This breaks compilation of UML: `.text.exit' referenced in section `.fini_array' of /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.a(sdlerror.o): defined in discarded section `.text.exit' of /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.a(sdlerror.o) Apparently UML doesn't want to discard exit text, so let's place all EXIT_TEXT sections in .exit.text.
