[PATCH 2/2] arch/x86: Drop unneeded linker script discard of .eh_frame

From: Arvind Sankar
Date: Sun Feb 23 2020 - 14:37:27 EST


Now that we don't generate .eh_frame sections for the files in setup.elf
and realmode.elf, the linker scripts don't need the /DISCARD/ any more.

Also remove the one in the main kernel linker script, since there are no
.eh_frame sections already.
