[PATCH] x86, kaslr: handle Gold linker for finding bss+brk

[Kees Cook]

When building with the Gold linker, the .bss and .brk areas of vmlinux
are shown as consecutive instead of having the same file offset. Allow
for either state, as long as things add up correctly.

Fixes: e6023367d779 ("x86, kaslr: Prevent .bss from overlaping initrd")
