[PATCH v14 01/92] dyndbg: fix NULL ptr on i386 due to section mis-alignment

[Jim Cromie]

When dyndbg classmaps get used (later in this series), the
__dyndbg_classes section (which has 28 byte structs on i386), causes
mis-alignment of the following __dyndbg section, resulting in a NULL
pointer deref in dynamic_debug_init().

Fix this by:

Adding ALIGN(8) to the BOUNDED_SECTION* macros.  This aligns all
sections using those macros, including the problem section above.
Almost all the other macro uses are already ALIGN(8), either
directly or by being below one.

Removing BOUNDED_SECTION* uses in ORC_UNWINDER sections.  These
explicitly have smaller alignments, and using the modified macros here
would override that alignment, which scripts/sorttable.c does not
tolerate.

Move __dyndbg section back above __dyndbg_classes, restoring its
original position.  This is cosmetic, given the alignment added to the
macros.
