    ms/kernel: add support for .init_array.* constructors
    
    https://jira.sw.ru/browse/PSBM-26429
    
    From: Andrey Ryabinin <a.ryabinin at samsung.com>
    
    commit 9ddf82521c86ae07af79dbe5a93c52890f2bab23 upstream.
    
    KASan uses constructors for initializing redzones for global variables.
    Globals instrumentation in GCC 4.9.2 produces constructors with priority
    (.init_array.00099)
    
    Currently kernel ignores such constructors.  Only constructors with
    default priority supported (.init_array)
    
    This patch adds support for constructors with priorities.  For kernel
    image we put pointers to constructors between __ctors_start/__ctors_end
    and do_ctors() will call them on start up.  For modules we merge
    .init_array.* sections into resulting .init_array.  Module code properly
    handles constructors in .init_array section.
