Hi,

We have decided to apply the forwarded patch to the embedded-7-branch to fix an 
ICE when doing partial LTO with weak symbols.

ChangeLog entry is as follows:

	Backport from mainline
	2017-06-15  Jan Hubicka  <hubicka@ucw.cz>
		    Thomas Preud'homme  <thomas.preudhomme@arm.com>

	PR lto/69866
	* lto-symtab.c (lto_symtab_merge_symbols): Drop useless definitions
	that resolved externally.

	Backport from mainline
	2017-06-15  Thomas Preud'homme  <thomas.preudhomme@arm.com>

	PR lto/69866
