Subject: [PATCH 0/1] x86/boot: lld fix

arch/x86/boot/setup.elf currently has an orphan section .text.startup,
and lld git as of ebf14d9b6d8b is breaking on 64-bit due to what seems
to be a change in behavior on orphan section placement (details in patch
commit message).

I'm not sure if this was an intentional change in lld, but it seems like
a good idea to explicitly include .text.startup anyway.

  x86/boot: Add .text.startup to setup.ld
