We currently try to emit *.init.rodata.* twice, once in INIT_DATA, and once

identical, the latter is redundant and can be dropped.
This patch drops the redundant *.init.rodata.* section definition.

.init.rodata.* was added to INIT_DATA in
266ff2a8f51f02b429a987d87634697eb0d01d6a, so removing it here seems
reasonable. However, it does conflict with the for-next/lto branch in
the arm64 tree.
The possible causes of the conflict are e35123d83ee submit.
master branch code as follows:
...
INIT_RAM_FS
*(.init.rodata.* .init.bss) /* from the EFI stub */
for-next/lto branch code as follows:
...
INIT_RAM_FS
*(.init.altinstructions .init.rodata.* .init.bss) /* from the EFI
stub */
Thanks,
Youling
