[PATCH 1/5] arm64: Add markers around .text section and create sections.h
James Morse

Thu Jun 2 07:10:53 PDT 2016
During resume from hibernate, memory containing the kernel text is cleaned
to the PoU. Some parts of the kernel are executed with the MMU off, in
which case these instructions need to be cleaned to the PoC.
To aid the cleaning of this text, add markers around the existing section.
Each time new section markers are added, kernel/vmlinux.ld.S is updated,
and new extern char __start_foo[] definitions are scattered through the
tree.
Create asm/include/sections.h to collect these definitions (and include
the existing asm-generic version).
