* elf-bfd.h (bfd_elf_section_data): Add kept_section.
(elf_kept_section): New.
* elf.c (_bfd_elf_new_section_hook): Initialize
elf_kept_section to (asection *) -1L.
* elflink.c (match_group_member): Correctly iterate group
members.
(_bfd_elf_check_kept_section): Cache the result in
elf_kept_section.
