UML - Fix static linking
PATCH 1/1 UML - Fix static linking
[ This is both 2.6.21 and -stable material ]
During a static link, ld has started putting a .note section in the .uml.setup.init section. This has the result that the UML setups begin with 32 bytes of garbage and UML crashes immediately on boot.
This patch creates a specific .note section for ld to drop this stuff into.
