Normally all read-only sections precede SHF_WRITE sections. .dynamic and
.got have the SHF_WRITE flag; .dynamic probably because of DT_DEBUG. LLD
emits an error when this happens, so use "-z rodynamic" to mark .dynamic
as read-only.

We could wait for https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/11/13/19
"[PATCH] kbuild: Always link with '-z norelro'"

Then we would not need -z rodynamic to work around a -z relro issue.

(The issue is that some sections don't strictly follow the normal
R/RX/RW(RELRO)/RW(non-RELRO) section flag partition. As a linker person
I would suggest that we don't create multiple clusters with the same
section flags (e.g. RW in two separate places), but this is my very
minor complaint.)
