[PATCH] uml: fix static linking
During a static link, ld has started putting a .note section in the .uml.setup.init section. This has the result that the UML setups begin with 32 bytes of garbage and UML crashes immediately on boot. This patch creates a specific .note section for ld to drop this stuff into.
