[PATCH v5 29/36] x86/build: Enforce an empty .got.plt section

[Kees Cook]

The .got.plt section should always be zero (or filled only with the
linker-generated lazy dispatch entry). Enforce this with an assert and
mark the section as NOLOAD. This is more sensitive than just blindly
discarding the section.
