+Subject: [PATCH] Pass LD_GOLD=1 via makefile to enable gold linker
+
+Current logic prefers gold if a toolchain has gold linker installed and
+does not offer any option to chose default linker which might not be
+gold linker. Its better to pass this control to user instead of auto
+detecting and deciding.
+
+Upstream-Status: Submitted [https://github.com/ColinIanKing/stress-ng/pull/251]
