    elf: Apply attribute_relro to pointers in elf/dl-minimal.c
    
    The present code leaves the function pointers unprotected, but moves
    some of the static functions into .data.rel.ro instead.  This causes
    the linker to produce an allocatable, executable, writable section
    and eventually an RWX load segment.  Not only do we really do not
    want that, it also breaks valgrind because valgrind does not load
    debuginfo from the mmap interceptor if all it sees are RX and RWX
    mappings.
    
    Fixes commit 3a0ecccb599a6b1ad4b149dc569c0080e92d057b ("ld.so: Do not
    export free/calloc/malloc/realloc functions [BZ #25486]").
