lkdtm: support llvm-objcopy
commit e9e08a07385e08f1a7f85c5d1e345c21c9564963 upstream. With CONFIG_LKDTM=y and make OBJCOPY=llvm-objcopy, llvm-objcopy errors: llvm-objcopy: error: --set-section-flags=.text conflicts with --rename-section=.text=.rodata Rather than support setting flags then renaming sections vs renaming then setting flags, it's simpler to just change both at the same time via --rename-section. Adding the load flag is required for GNU objcopy to mark .rodata Type as PROGBITS after the rename. This can be verified with: $ readelf -S drivers/misc/lkdtm/rodata_objcopy.o ... Section Headers: [Nr] Name Type Address Offset Size EntSize Flags Link Info Align ... [ 1] .rodata PROGBITS 0000000000000000 00000040 0000000000000004 0000000000000000 A 0 0 4 ... Which shows that .text is now renamed .rodata, the alloc flag A is set, the type is PROGBITS, and the section is not flagged as writeable W.
