Pawel Moll dc810efb0c ARM: 6740/1: Place correctly notes section in the linker script 
Commit 18991197b4 added --build-id
linker option when toolchain supports it. ARM one does, but for some
reason places the section at 0 when linker script doesn't mention it
explicitly.

The 1e621a8e37 worked around the problem
removing this section from binary image with explicit objcopy options,
but it still exists in vmlinux, confusing tools like debuggers and perf.

This problem was discussed here:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2010-May/015994.html
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2010-May/015994.html
but the proposed changes to the linker script were substantial.

This patch simply places NOTES (36 bytes long, at least when compiled
with CodeSourcery toolchain) between data and bss, which seem to be
the right place (and suggested by the sample linker script in
include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h).

It is enough to place it correctly in vmlinux (so debuggers are happy):

Section Headers:
  [11] .data             PROGBITS        c07ce000 7ce000 020fc0 00  WA  0   0 32

  [13] .bss              NOBITS          c07ef000 7eefe4 01e628 00  WA  0   0 32
Program Headers:

  NOTE           0x7eefc0 0xc07eefc0 0xc07eefc0 0x00024 0x00024 R E 0x4
Section to Segment mapping:
  Segment Sections...
   00     <...> .data .notes .bss
   01     .notes

and to get it exposed as /sys/kernel/notes used by perf tools.
