I cannot figure out why clang-format rejects `llvm/lib/ObjCopy/ELF/ELFObjcopy.cpp`: when I run the formatter script (`clang/tools/clang-format/git-clang-format llvm/lib/ObjCopy/ELF/ELFObjcopy.cpp`) it doesn't make any changes.

Yes, because there's a difference in behaviour: if you don't operate on the section, the flag is reinterpreserved when you change architectures, but if you do operate on it, then it might get dropped. I initially had a separate objcopy run for this, but maskray@ suggested just rolling that into a section that's not operated on.
