Oops. This also has the potential to partition sections into groups
such that parts of _init end up in different groups - with stubs in
the middle. Reverting..
* elf64-ppc.c (struct ppc_link_hash_table): Reinstate top_index.
Restore previous input_list type.
(ppc64_elf_link_hash_table_create): Undo last change.
(ppc64_elf_setup_section_lists): Reinstate code setting up input lists
per output section, but don't bother with bfd_abs_section marker.
(ppc64_elf_next_input_section): Adjust for multiple input section
lists.
(group_sections): Likewise.
