Remove the binutils patch reverting [1] that triggers a sh4 kernel bug
with binutils >= 2.33. Instead, add two kernel patches provided by
Alan Modra [2] that fix alignment of rodata.

-
-This reverts commit ebd2263ba9a9124d93bbc0ece63d7e0fae89b40e.
-
-Revert this patch since it prevent booting a sh4 system under
-Qemu as reported on the Binutils mailing list [1].
-This commit is not related to sh4, it's weird that it is the
-only affected architecture.
