Garbage collecting debug sections

I noticed that _bfd_elf_gc_mark_extra_sections attempts to unmark
related debug sections when it finds an unmarked code section.
When it finds .text.foo is unmarked, for example, it removes
.debug_line.text.foo as well (using the section name as a suffix
match check.

However, it bails out after finding one such section.
