I'm afraid this causes build errors on two configurations:

./arch/arm/kernel/vmlinux.lds:701: undefined symbol `SECTION_SHIFT' referenced in expression

which I think is down to the new __start_rodata_section_aligned line.

Olof's builder errored out with this for both allnoconfig and
lpc18xx_defconfig builds.  Both probably due to CONFIG_MMU being
unset, and hence no definition for SECTION_SHIFT.

I think you need to make this conditional on CONFIG_MMU.
