lkp reported a build error, I tried the config and can reproduce
build error as below:
VDSOLD arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vdso.so.dbg
ld.lld: error: section .note file range overlaps with .text
>>> .note range is [0x7C8, 0x803]
>>> .text range is [0x800, 0x1993]
ld.lld: error: section .text file range overlaps with .dynamic
>>> .text range is [0x800, 0x1993]
>>> .dynamic range is [0x808, 0x937]
ld.lld: error: section .note virtual address range overlaps with .text
>>> .note range is [0x7C8, 0x803]
>>> .text range is [0x800, 0x1993]
Fix it by setting DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING which will disable branch
tracing for vdso, thus avoid useless _ftrace_annotated_branch section
and _ftrace_branch section. Although we can also fix it by removing
the hardcoded .text begin address, but I think that's another story
and should be put into another patch.
