* layout.cc (Layout::special_ordering_of_input_section): New
function. (Layout::layout): If input section requires special ordering, must sort input sections. (Layout::make_output_section): May sort .text input sections. (Layout::is_section_name_prefix_grouped): Remove. * layout.h (class Layout): Declare special_ordering_of_input_section. Don't declare is_section_name_prefix_grouped. * output.cc (Output_section::add_input_section): Revert last change. (Output_section::Input_section_sort::match_file_name): Don't crash if called on output section data. (Output_section::Input_section_sort_compare): Sort based on special ordering. (Output_section::Input_section_sort_section_order_index_compare): Revert last patch. (Output_section::sort_attached_input_sections): Likewise.
