RFA: Fix use of section number in ls'd PowerPC apuinfo tests

Hi Alan,
I am trying to fix up some linker testsuite failures for the PowerPC
architecture on our RHEL systems and I have come across three that
look like this:
/builddir/build/BUILD/binutils-2.34.90/ld/../binutils/readelf -x2 tmpdir/apuinfo-vle
regexp_diff match failure
regexp "^Hex dump of section '\.PPC\.EMB\.apuinfo':$"
line "Section '.data' has no data to dump."
This looks to be due to a simple (incorrect) assumption that the
.PPC.EMB.apuinfo section will be the second one in the executable, and
if I apply the patch below the problem goes away.
Any objections to my committing the patch ?
Cheers
Nick
