If you use AT to force a new load address (LMA), you must ensure that
you actually output something at this address. Here, if *(.__secure_end)
ends up being empty, whatever follows would be as if the AT never
happened, ending up at the wrong LMA.

The workaround is to force the output of a dummy value in all
cases, ensuring that the rest of the text is at a sensible LMA. This is
an issue that has been in GNU ld for years, and this workaround is a
copy/paste of the same one in the ARMv7 ld script.

Thanks,
