With recent binutils, the following warning appears: VDSO32L arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg /opt/gcc-12.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/../lib/gcc/powerpc64-linux/12.2.0/../../../../powerpc64-linux/bin/ld: warning: arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/getcpu-32.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack /opt/gcc-12.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/../lib/gcc/powerpc64-linux/12.2.0/../../../../powerpc64-linux/bin/ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker
To avoid that, explicitely tell the linker we don't want executable stack.
