Commit e7607f7d6d ("ARM: 9443/1: Require linker to support KEEP within
OVERLAY for DCE") accidentally broke the binutils version restriction
that was added in commit 0d437918fb ("ARM: 9414/1: Fix build issue
with LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION"), reintroducing the segmentation
fault addressed by that workaround.
Restore the binutils version dependency by using
CONFIG_LD_CAN_USE_KEEP_IN_OVERLAY as an additional condition to ensure
that CONFIG_HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is only enabled with
binutils >= 2.36 and ld.lld >= 21.0.0.

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or
make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
