Subject: [PATCH 7/7] ARM: simplify and fix linker script for TCM
Date: Thu,  8 Mar 2018 22:21:00 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180309032100.31039-8-nicolas.pitre@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180309032100.31039-1-nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

Let's put the TCM stuff in the __init section directly. No need for
a separately freed memory area.

Remove redundant linker sections, as well as comments that were more
confusing than no comments at all. Finally make it XIP compatible by
using LOAD_OFFSET in the section LMA specification.
