--- Comment #2 from Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> ---
The kernel folk are generating PIEs and then being surprised about linker
generated dynamic sections.

In this particular case the .gnu.version* happen to end up as zero sized and
are removed from the final output.  That doesn't mean that
--orphan-handling=warn or error should be silent.  A zero size orphan is still
an orphan, and in the case of dynamic sections their size isn't known at the
time sections are mapped to output.
