    Found in the wild when tried to link Xen with LLVM LD. Here is script for reproduction:

```
#!/usr/bin/env bash

cat >1.c <<EOF
void test(void)
{
asm ( ".pushsection .rodata.str, \"aMS\", %progbits, 1\n"
         "1: .asciz \"test\" \n"
 "2:\n"
         ".popsection\n"
         ".pushsection .bug_frames, \"a\", %progbits\n"
         "3:\n"
 ".p2align 2\n"
         ".long (1b - 3b)\n"
         ".long (2b - 3b)\n"
         ".popsection");
}

EOF

clang -target arm64 -c 1.c -o 1.o

ld.lld -r 1.o -o 2.o

```

`ld.lld` fails with the message:

```
ld.lld: error: 1.o:(.rodata.str): offset is outside the section
```

While GNU ld handles the file as expected.

`ld.lld` version is `LLD 18.1.8 (compatible with GNU linkers)`
