VDSO linker script

I see the following failure when building a ppc64 Linux kernel with gold:

# gcc -m64 -nostdlib -shared -Wl,-T vdso64.lds foo.c

/root/binutils_install/bin/ld: error: sections loaded on first page without
room for file and program headers are not supported
/root/binutils_install/bin/ld: error: address of section '.brlt' moves backward
from 0x1003a0 to 0x0


Adding the .brlt section to DISCARD (as suggested by Alan) fixes it.
