[PATCH v2 8/8] x86: remove unneeded section from the vDSO

[Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz>]

Some standard sections are not useful in the resulting binary.

.gnu.warning.* is only interesting for the linker.

.note.* may be discarded, except:
  .note.Linux which contains the Linux version
  .note.gnu.build-id which may be useful for identifying
    the vDSO
