This has been addressed in -next with:

Makefile: Link with -z noexectack
When moving to gcc-12.2 we started trying to quiet some of the new
linker warnings, that are not relevant to us. However, a
misunderstanding of the mechanics at play meant that I intentionally
omitted passing -z noexecstack to the linker, when we do need to. Add
this flag and in turn remove warnings from the linker.

I didn't put this in master as (as far as I know) we're merely telling
the toolchain we're being intentional, and not changing the behavior.
