This flag adds special ordering requirements for link editors. The requirements
apply if the sh_link field of this section's header references another section
(the linked-to section). If this section is combined with other sections in the
output file, it must appear in the same relative order with respect to those
sections, as the linked-to section appears with respect to sections the
linked-to section is combined with.
 A typical use of this flag is to build a table that references text or data
sections in address order.

But __patchable_function_entries section doesn't have requirement on section
order.  All it requires that __patchable_function_entries section must be
treated as a group together with the section it references.
