[PATCH] x86: assemble with -Wa,--noexecstack to avoid BFD 2.39 warning

[Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com>]

Users of GNU ld (BFD) from binutils 2.39+ will observe multiple instance
of a new warning when linking kernels in the form:

  ld: warning: arch/x86/realmode/rm/bioscall.o: missing .note.GNU-stack
  section implies executable stack
  ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future
  version of the linker

The object files producing these all happen to be out of line assembler
sources (*.S files).

Generally, we would like to avoid the stack being executable. Because
there could be a need for the stack to be executable, assembler sources
have to opt-in to this security feature via explicit creation of the
.note.GNU-stack feature (which compilers create by default) or command
line flag --noexecstack.

Boot tested defconfig and i386_defconfig in QEMU. If any assembler
sources do require executable stack, they can be built with
-Wa,--execstack, though the linker warning would have to be disabled. We
might need to extend this more generally to the top level Makefile for
all architectures, but I'm not equipped to test the result of such a
change.

LLVM's LLD linker defaults to -z noexecstack, so this flag isn't
strictly necessary when linking with LLD, only BFD, but it doesn't hurt
to be explicit here for all linkers IMO.
