[ Upstream commit 25ea739ea1d4d3de41acc4f4eb2d1a97eee0eb75 ]
binutils v2.37 drops unused section symbols, which prevents recordmcount
from capturing mcount locations in sections that have no non-weak
symbols. This results in a build failure with a message such as:
Cannot find symbol for section 12: .text.perf_callchain_kernel.
kernel/events/callchain.o: failed
The change to binutils was reverted for v2.38, so this behavior is
specific to binutils v2.37:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=c09c8b42021180eee9495bd50d8b35e683d3901b
Objtool is able to cope with such sections, so this issue is specific to
recordmcount.
Fail the build and print a warning if binutils v2.37 is detected and if
we are using recordmcount.
