Subject: [PATCH v4 mips-next 4/7] MIPS: vmlinux.lds.S: catch bad .rel.dyn at link time

Catch any symbols placed in .rel.dyn and check for these sections
to be zero-sized at link time.
Eliminates following ld warning:

mips-alpine-linux-musl-ld: warning: orphan section `.rel.dyn'
from `init/main.o' being placed in section `.rel.dyn'

Adopted from x86/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S.
