[Bug 1520162] Re: compiled binaries don't work on arm64 64k pages kernel

[Martin Pitt]

I reassign that to binutils for now, which provides the linker. Looks
like the alignment of the ELF sections need to be adjusted for 64k
pages?

** Summary changed:

- Systemd init failure on arm64 64k pages
+ compiled binaries don't work on arm64 64k pages kernel

** Summary changed:

- compiled binaries don't work on arm64 64k pages kernel
+ compiled binaries don't work on arm64 64k pages kernel due to alignment

** Package changed: systemd (Ubuntu) => binutils (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: binutils (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New

Bug description:
  Some binaries in 15.10 for aarch64 seem to be compiled with maxpagesize=4K which triggers issues when run on 64K pages
  arm64 kernels (tested on all kernels back to 4.0). I spotted this while trying to boot an arm64 kernel with 64K pages enabled on 15.10 Ubuntu filesystem.
