Due to the fact that runtime const ELF sections are named without a leading period or double underscore, the RSTRIP logic that removes the static RELA sections from vmlinux fails to identify them. This results in a situation like below, where some sections that were supposed to get removed are left behind.

While at it, consolidate the logic used by RISC-V, s390 and x86 into a single shared Makefile library command.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
