First of all, asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h is there to share common code
where possible, so if it's not possible, you still have the option of
having your own special code in arch/$(ARCH)/vmlinux.lds.S
Having said that, you could add
#define TEXT_MEM > flash
at the beginning of arch/m68knommu/vmlinux.lds.S
and
#ifndef TEXT_MEM
#define TEXT_MEM
#endif
at the beginning of include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h and then change
.text : {
*(.text)
- }
+ } TEXT_MEM
Would that work for you?
