If no object files have .eh_frame, but some shared library does, then
ld creates a .eh_frame_hdr section using the shared library bfd. This
is silly since shared library .eh_frame sections don't contribute to
the output .eh_frame and thus no .eh_frame_hdr is needed.
Also, the bfd section list and count is cleared for shared libraries,
and a zero section count used as a flag in lang_check to omit a call
to bfd_merge_private_bfd_data for shared libraries. If we create a
section on a shared lib bfd then ld will wrongly attempt to merge the
shared library private bfd data.

Similarly for build-id loop.
The AVR target has an elf header flag to indicate if an object was
assembler ready for linker relaxation. If a partial link is performed
then it is important that the link-relax flag in the output object is
set correctly, otherwise, during the final link, we might try to perform
linker relaxation on code that was not assembled suitably.
As the link-relax elf header covers the entire object file we must be
conservative when setting the flag in the output object, so, for a
partial link, any input object that does not have the link-relax flag
set will cause the output object to also not have the link-relax flag
set.
This conservative approach could be softened in future, we only need to
disable the link relax flag if an input file is not marked link-relax
ready, and the input file contains a relaxable section. However, I've
left this optimisation for a later day.
For the final link I've overloaded the use of the link-relax elf header
flag, in a final executable, the flag now indicates if the executable
was built with linker relaxation on or not.

Refactor each relaxation pattern to raise the maintainability.
In origin, all patterns is analysed in nds32_elf_relax_section,
so it is hard to debug and maintain. Therefore, we classify all
patterns into different functions in this patch.
Moreover, we adjust all optimizations into nds32_elf_relax_section
to take these optimizations in turn. This can promise all relaxation
being done after calling gld${EMULATION_NAME}_after_allocation.
The section name used to store the build-id on pe/coff is arbitrary, as it's
contents should be located using the pe/coff header's DataDirectory debug data
entry, not by using the section name.
But '.build-id' is not a good choice for that section name, as it is 9
characters long, and hence truncated to 8 characters when
--disable-long-section-names is used (which is the default, when producing an
executable with no dwarf debug sections, e.g. using ld --strip-all --build-id)
This truncation then breaks 'objcopy --only-keep-debug', which does use the
section name, due to concerns that keeping an arbitrary section which contains
the debug directory is not sensible.

I noticed recently that .eh_frame FDEs generated by the linker for
call stubs and .glink weren't being indexed in .eh_frame_hdr, due to
bfd_elf_discard_info being run before the linker generated .eh_frame
sections were available for parsing. This patch moves code around in
elf64-ppc.c and ppc64elf.em to avoid that problem.
Another problem fixed here is that --gc-sections parses .eh_frame
early, and the existing machinery allows only one go at parsing the
.eh_frame sections. That resulted in the linker generated .eh_frame
CIEs not being merged and no .eh_frame_hdr index entries for those
FDEs. It turns out that all the info from parsing .eh_frame is
attached to the section, so order of parsing isn't important, and
after parsing sec_info_type being set will prevent a section being
parsed again. At least, when parsing doesn't hit an error. So there
isn't really any need for "parsed_eh_frame". "merge_cies" is also
redundant, which means _bfd_elf_{begin,end}_eh_frame_parsing can also
disappear.

is_inconsistent_linkonce_section makes an assumption that section name
that starts with ".gnu.linkonce.prop." has one more dot in its suffix.
However gas generates such section name by insertion of "prop." right
after ".gnu.linkonce." part of the name of the original section. So, for
section named ".gnu.linkonce.this_module" corresponding property section
name does not satisfy the assumption. Such section names are common in
linux modules. This bug was exposed by the patch "a35d5e8 Fix alignment
for the first section frag on xtensa", that makes gas produce property
section for each section that has ".align" directive in it.

manner to the way _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ is handled. It's a little

Nowadays we strip unneeded sections from the output, so it isn't

most likely because at some stage we were checking input sections.

Older GCC, like 4.1/4.2, will issue an uninitialized warning on
ehdr_start_save. This patch silences by using
struct bfd_link_hash_entry ehdr_start_save = ehdr_start_save;
* emultempl/elf32.em (gld${EMULATION_NAME}_before_allocation):
Silence uninitialized warning on ehdr_start_save with older
GCC.
Rather than hacking every backend to not discard dynamic relocations
against an undefined hidden __ehdr_start, make it appear to be defined
early. We want __ehdr_start hidden before size_dynamic_sections so
that it isn't put in .dynsym, but we do need the dynamic relocations
for a PIE or shared library with a non-PIC reference. Defining it
early is wrong if we don't actually define the symbol later to its
proper value. (In some cases we want to leave the symbol undefined,
for example, when the ELF header isn't loaded, and we don't have this
infomation available in before_allocation.)
