+ Huacai.

The doc of elf_backend_default_execstack says:

  /* True if an object file lacking a .note.GNU-stack section
     should be assumed to be requesting exec stack.  At least one
     other file in the link needs to have a .note.GNU-stack section
     for a PT_GNU_STACK segment to be created.  */

So I think it only controls the default behavior of bfd library and is
not related to the kernel?
