[PATCH 7/7] riscv: remove limit on the size of read-only section for XIP kernel

XIP_OFFSET is the hard-coded offset of writable data section within the
kernel.
By hard-coding this value, the read-only section of the kernel (which is
placed before the writable data section) is restricted in size. This causes
build failures if the kernel get too big (an example is in Closes:).
Remove this limit.
