[PATCH v17 10/15] arm64: kexec: use ld script for relocation function

Thu Sep 16 16:13:20 PDT 2021


Currently, relocation code declares start and end variables
which are used to compute its size.

The better way to do this is to use ld script incited, and put relocation
function in its own section.
