This patch causes a build error on one of my systems:

/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/7/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: unrecognized option '--no-warn-rwx-segments'
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/7/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: use the --help option for usage information
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Just like in commit ffcf9c5700e4 ("x86: link vdso and boot with -z noexecstack --no-warn-rwx-segments") you need to
test for it.

Thanks,
