Improve vmlinux.lds.h support for arch specific linker scripts
To support alingment of the individual architecture specific linker scripts provide a set of general definitions in vmlinux.lds.h With these definitions applied the diverse linekr scripts can be reduced in line count and their readability are improved - IMO. A sample linker script is included to give the preferred order of the sections for the architectures that do not have any special requirments. These definitions are also a first step towards eventual support for -ffunction-sections. The definitions makes it much easier to do a global renaming of section names - but the main purpose is to clean up the linker scripts. Tim Aboot has provided a lot of inputs to improve the definitions - all faults are mine. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Tim Abbott <tabbott@mit.edu>
