powerpc/vmlinux.lds: Don't discard .rela* for relocatable builds
commit 07b050f9290ee012a407a0f64151db902a1520f5 upstream. Relocatable kernels must not discard relocations, they need to be processed at runtime. As such they are included for CONFIG_RELOCATABLE builds in the powerpc linker script (line 340). However they are also unconditionally discarded later in the script (line 414). Previously that worked because the earlier inclusion superseded the discard. However commit 99cb0d917ffa ("arch: fix broken BuildID for arm64 and riscv") introduced an earlier use of DISCARD as part of the RO_DATA macro (line 137). With binutils < 2.36 that causes the DISCARD directives later in the script to be applied earlier, causing .rela* to actually be discarded at link time, leading to build warnings and a kernel that doesn't boot: ld: warning: discarding dynamic section .rela.init.rodata Fix it by conditionally discarding .rela* only when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is disabled.
