More or less that's what I'm doing now on my system. You can diff the 2 in order to see what I've removed.

But wait...you said 'the last step' was to add a 2nd linker file and change the Makefiles to use it.


Are you saying I should first submit a patch that simply adds the new file, but not hook it up to any Makefiles yet?
Then, once it has been updated a few times and is in better shape, I submit another patch that hooks it up with the Makefiles so I can then finally remove the XIP_KERNEL parts from the current vmlinux.lds.S?
