Although these are nothing to worry about, the warning is going to be
annoying when people upgrade to new binutils.

Newer binutils issue this harmless warning when they encounter code
such as:

	.section	blah
	.previous
	.section	blah,"ax",@progbits
	...

as any kernel module would.

This means that its going to get very annoying when compiling kernel
modules.  What to do about it - I leave that up to the rest of LKML
to discuss.
