Subject: [PATCH 7/8] powerpc: use new macro for .data.read_mostly section.
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2009 19:56:16 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1241135777-9462-8-git-send-email-tabbott@mit.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1241135777-9462-7-git-send-email-tabbott@mit.edu>
.data.read_mostly should not need a separate output section; this
change moves it into the .data section.
