elf: Strip zero-sized dynamic sections
ELF size_dynamic_sections is called by the ELF backend linker after all the linker input files have been seen but before the section sizes have been set. After the sections sizes have been set, target-specific, global optimizations may make some dynamic sections zero-sized if they are no longer needed. Add ELF strip_zero_sized_dynamic_sections so that ELF backend linker can strip zero-sized dynamic sections after the sections sizes have been set. bfd/ PR ld/25849 * elf-bfd.h (elf_backend_data): Add elf_backend_strip_zero_sized_dynamic_sections. (_bfd_elf_strip_zero_sized_dynamic_sections): New prototype. * elf64-alpha.c (elf_backend_strip_zero_sized_dynamic_sections): New macro. * elflink.c (_bfd_elf_strip_zero_sized_dynamic_sections): New function. * elfxx-target.h (elf_backend_strip_zero_sized_dynamic_sections): New macro. (elfNN_bed): Add elf_backend_strip_zero_sized_dynamic_sections. ld/ PR ld/25849 * ldelfgen.c (ldelf_map_segments): Call elf_backend_strip_zero_sized_dynamic_sections. * testsuite/ld-alpha/tlsbinr.rd: Updated.
