Subject: [PATCH v2 6/8] xen/x86: Reorder .data and .init when linking
Date: Tue, 23 Feb 2016 16:31:23 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1456245085-2302-7-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1456245085-2302-1-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>

In preparation for using superpage mappings, .data and .bss will both want to
be mapped as read-write.  By making them adjacent, they can share the same
superpage and will not require superpage alignment between themselves.

While making this change, fix an exposed alignment bug.  __init_end only needs
page alignment, while .bss.stack_aligned needs STACK_SIZE alignment.
