[PATCH 1/3] riscv: Use _stext not _text to denote the start of kernel code

[Ard Biesheuvel]

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb at kernel.org>

On RISC-V, _text and _stext currently refer to the same location, i.e.,
the start of the .text output section, which follows the image header
(.head.text) emitted by HEAD_TEXT_SECTION. _start is the symbol that
refers to the actual start of the image.

On most other architectures, _text refers to the start of the image, and
_stext to the start of the kernel code, and generic code (such as the
EFI stub) may start relying on this distinction.

So switch the only user of _text in arch/riscv, i.e., the "Kernel code"
resource that is exposed via /proc/iomem (and from which the "Kernel
image" resource inherits its start address), over to _stext. This is a
no-op given that both symbols currently resolve to the same address, but
it permits _text to be moved to the start of the image, making it an
alias of _start.
