[ YOCTO #4089 ]
This is an attempt at a workaround for the debugedit segv.
The problem is that during the creation of the build-id hash, the
system iterates over the various ELF sections passing a point to the
loaded data and size of each section to a hash function.
When it gets to the hash for the .plt and .bss section, the size is
non-zero, while the data is point to 0. This immediately causes a
segfault on access of data at address 0.
See the bug and patch comments for more diagnostic information.
