overlays is a solved problem with GNU ld and GNU GDB already. to some extend it
is outside of GCC:

What i am trying to say this feature is not so obvious of what you want/need.
There have been already proposals before on overlays years ago. That is how
most embedded folks do it except for the Linux kern

It certainly is not specific to the Linux kernel, although perhaps how I
phrased it is (in particular tying it to sections is rather specific to
embedded environments, of which the Linux kernel is but one.)
