Build ID is missing for arm64 with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y using ld >= 2.36
on 5.4, 5.10, and 5.15

Backport BuildID fixes.

I've build tested this on {x86_64, arm64, riscv, powerpc, s390, sh}.

  # view Build ID
  $ readelf -n vmlinux | grep "Build ID"

Changes for v2:
- rebase 5/5 c1c551bebf92 ("sh: define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT") from upstream

I do not understand why you are applying patches from 6.2 that "fix"
something that is not in this kernel (or the older ones).  Please
document that really well on your next set of submissions.

I've taken the 6.1.y series only and dropped all the others.

thanks,

Build ID is missing for arm64 with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y using ld >= 2.36
That's it.

What is quirky is binutils 'ld'.
Where this can be fixed is the kernel linker script, which IS present.
Those are the patches.

All the others is where it's really broken.
