[PATCH] ARM: rename missed uaccess .fixup section

From: Kees Cook
Date: Fri Feb 07 2020 - 21:03:00 EST


When the uaccess .fixup section was renamed to .text.fixup, one case was
missed. Under ld.bfd, the orphaned section was moved close to .text
(since they share the "ax" bits), so things would work normally on
uaccess faults. Under ld.lld, the orphaned section was placed outside
the .text section, making it unreachable. Rename the missed section.

I completely missed this the first several times I looked at this
problem. Thank you Nicolas for pushing back on the earlier patch!
Manoj or Nathan, can you test this?
