Further looking into the function code ,The behavior of
lang_output_section_statement_lookup differs between binutils 2.35 and 2.36. In
version 2.35, an if/else guard wraps a do...while loop in the function, but in
2.36 source here:
https://github.com/bminor/binutils-gdb/commit/21401fc7bf67dbf73f4a3eda4bcfc58fa4211584,
the guard was removed, leaving only an unguarded do...while loop. This change
appears to cause continuous looping and delay in the 2.36 linker. We need to
see if there is a way to avoid this new behavior.
