    gcc-7.3.0 cross build ld shows below warnings.

    MODPOST vmlinux.o
    /opt/gcc-7.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.gnu.hash' from `linker stubs' being placed in section `.gnu.hash'.
    KSYM .tmp_kallsyms1.o
    /opt/gcc-7.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.gnu.hash' from `linker stubs' being placed in section `.gnu.hash'.
    KSYM .tmp_kallsyms2.o
    /opt/gcc-7.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.gnu.hash' from `linker stubs' being placed in section `.gnu.hash'.
    KSYM .tmp_kallsyms3.o
    LD vmlinux
    /opt/gcc-7.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-ld: warning: orphan section `.gnu.hash' from `linker stubs' being placed in section `.gnu.hash'.

    But it seems another warning, and I couldn't see your warnings. Could you tell me your gcc version?

    Thank you,
