[PATCH 02/11] x86/xip: Update address of sections in linker script

From: Jim Kukunas
Date: Mon Mar 23 2015 - 03:55:18 EST


In order to update the LMA for each section, according to
CONFIG_XIP_BASE, this patch uses the preprocessor to change
the arguments passed to the AT keyword. Each LMA is updated
to that symbol's physical address.

The text section is aligned to a page so that the ELF
header at the beginning of XIP_BASE isn't mapped into
the linear address space. Also the initial location counter
is incremented to account for the ELF header.
