See the "older binutils?" above ;)

my toolchain is quite old,

$ ld -v GNU ld version 2.25-17.fc23

but according to Documentation/process/changes.rst

binutils 2.25 ld -v

it should be still supported.

So your issue happens because of older binutils? Any other ingredient?

I'd like for the commit message to contain *exactly* what we're fixing here so that anyone who reads this, can know whether this fix is needed on her/his kernel or not...

Thx.
