[PATCH] uml: fix CONFIG_STATIC_LINK=y build failure with newer glibc

With glibc 2.11 or later that was built with --enable-multi-arch,
the UML link fails with undefined references to __rel_iplt_start and
similar symbols.  In recent binutils, the default linker script
defines these symbols (see ld --verbose).  Fix the UML linker
scripts to match the new defaults for these sections.
