    powerpc: Make dummy section a valid note header · e16459c6

    We are declaring the dummy section (used to work around a binutils
    bug) as PT_NOTE, but we don't have enough bytes for it to be a valid
    note header, and kexec userspace complains:
    
    Warning: Elf Note name is not null terminated
    Warning: append= option is not passed. Using the first kernel root partition
    Warning: Elf Note name is not null terminated
    
    Instead of using the arbitray value 0xf177 (aka "fill"), declare a
    no-name no-description note of type 0.
