This is an updated version of the patch series I sent in late July cleaning up the arm architecture's linker scripts. Version 2 was rebased on top of Linus's current master; version 3 contains a fix for a problem with CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL noted by Russell King. Version 4 differs from version 3 only in being rebased on top of Linus' master.
This cross-architecture linker script cleanup project is in preparation for adding support for building the kernel with -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections, which is a prerequisite for Ksplice.

Nelson Elhage (1): arm: Clean up linker script using new linker script macros.
