[RFC PATCH 3/5] arm: align init, text, rodata to PMD_SIZE if CONFIG_STRICT_MEMORY_RWX is set

[lauraa@codeaurora.org (Laura Abbott)]

From: Larry Bassel <lbassel@codeaurora.org>

Init code, text, rodata and data need different permissions
and so they need to be on different pages. The kernel 1-to-1
mapping is constructed using section size pages to improve
TLB performance and this should not be changed (to 4K pages).
Therefore ensure that each of these regions starts on a PMD_SIZE
boundary. SECTION_SIZE is not enough as everything is mapped first
and then cleared later and remapped.
