sh: define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT
sh vmlinux fails to link with GNU ld < 2.40 (likely < 2.36) since
commit 99cb0d917ffa ("arch: fix broken BuildID for arm64 and riscv").
This is similar to fixes for powerpc and s390:
commit 4b9880dbf3bd ("powerpc/vmlinux.lds: Define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT").
commit a494398bde27 ("s390: define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT to fix link error
with GNU ld < 2.36").
$ sh4-linux-gnu-ld --version | head -n1
GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.35.2
$ make ARCH=sh CROSS_COMPILE=sh4-linux-gnu- microdev_defconfig
$ make ARCH=sh CROSS_COMPILE=sh4-linux-gnu-
`.exit.text' referenced in section `__bug_table' of crypto/algboss.o:

make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.vmlinux:34: vmlinux] Error 1
make[1]: *** [Makefile:1252: vmlinux] Error 2
arch/sh/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S keeps EXIT_TEXT:
/*
* .exit.text is discarded at runtime, not link time, to deal with
* references from __bug_table
*/
.exit.text : AT(ADDR(.exit.text)) { EXIT_TEXT }
However, EXIT_TEXT is thrown away by
DISCARD(include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h) because
sh does not define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT.
GNU ld 2.40 does not have this issue and builds fine.
This corresponds with Masahiro's comments in a494398bde27:
"Nathan [Chancellor] also found that binutils
commit 21401fc7bf67 ("Duplicate output sections in scripts") cured this
issue, so we cannot reproduce it with binutils 2.36+, but it is better
to not rely on it."
