[PATCH 0/4] Use macros rather than hardcoding section names

[Tim Abbott]

This patch series cleans up the kernel's explicit references to
.data.page_aligned, .bss.page_aligned, and .data.init_task to instead
use the standard macros for those sections.embly code.

This cleanup is in preparation for being able to change the names of
the .data.page_aligned and .bss.page_aligned sections to be
compatabible with -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections.

This patch series doesn't touch the kernel's linker scripts, only the
C and assembly files.  Later today, I'm going to send a series of
patches cleaning up the linker scripts for about half the
architectures.  The diffstat for that looks like:
