[RFC PATCH 2/2] pgo: Make module.lds.S linker script to merge __llvm_prf_ sections.

[Jarmo Tiitto]

The compiler leaves many duplicate instances of __llvm_prf_* sections
in final module objects and they confuse the kernel module loader.
Fix this by providing module.lds.S linker script that merges the split
sections like vmlinux.lds.S currently does.

I'm not sure the linker script is entirely correct and
it propably needs more work.
