When both `CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION=y` and `CONFIG_KASAN=y`
are set, link step typically produce numberous warnings about orphan
section:

  powerpc-linux-gnu-ld: warning: orphan section `.data..LASAN0' from `net/core/filter.o' being placed in section `.data..LASAN0'
  powerpc-linux-gnu-ld: warning: orphan section `.data..LASANLOC1' from `net/core/filter.o' being placed in section `.data..LASANLOC1'

This commit remove those warnings produced at W=1.
