[PATCH v5 17/36] arm64/build: Remove .eh_frame* sections due to unwind tables
From: Kees Cook
Date: Fri Jul 31 2020 - 19:18:48 EST
Avoid .eh_frame* section generation by making sure both CFLAGS and AFLAGS
contain -fno-asychronous-unwind-tables and -fno-unwind-tables.
With all sources of .eh_frame now removed from the build, drop this
DISCARD so we can be alerted in the future if it returns unexpectedly
once orphan section warnings have been enabled.
