It seems to cause lots of problems when using the gold linker, and no one really needs this at the moment, so just revert it from the stable trees.
Ah great, I just wrote a report after a build failure upgrading to 4.9.180 due to this one. It fails with older binutils (2.22 for me). I'm cancelling my e-mail now seeing it's already known :-)
I can try some patches if original authors want to try another variant of this patch later.
