[Aarch64][gas][2.25] Backport fix for minimum code section alignment


Hello,

This patch backports to binutils-2.25 the fix for failing to set a minimum
alignment for code-sections.

The trunk change is here:
  https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2015-03/msg00039.html
The commit log is here:
  https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils-cvs/2015-03/msg00054.html

Tested aarch64-none-linux-gnu with check-binutils and check-gas.

Ok for the branch?
Matthew
