A recent change in LLVM causes module_{c,d}tor sections to appear when CONFIG_K{A,C}SAN are enabled, which results in orphan section warnings because these are not handled anywhere:
ld.lld: warning: arch/x86/pci/built-in.a(legacy.o):(.text.asan.module_ctor) is being placed in '.text.asan.module_ctor' ld.lld: warning: arch/x86/pci/built-in.a(legacy.o):(.text.asan.module_dtor) is being placed in '.text.asan.module_dtor' ld.lld: warning: arch/x86/pci/built-in.a(legacy.o):(.text.tsan.module_ctor) is being placed in '.text.tsan.module_ctor'
Place them in the TEXT_TEXT section so that these technologies continue to work with the newer compiler versions. All of the KASAN and KCSAN KUnit tests continue to pass after this change.
