Subject: [PATCH 7/7] ARM: vmlinux.lds: use _text and _stext the same way as x86
Date: Wed, 06 Jul 2011 11:25:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1QePI6-0004zz-RR@rmk-PC.arm.linux.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110706102245.GO8286@n2100.arm.linux.org.uk>

x86 uses _text to mark the start of the kernel image including the
head text, and _stext to mark the start of the .text section.  Change
our vmlinux.lds to conform.  An audit of the places which use _stext
and _text in arch/arm indicates no users of either symbol are impacted
by this change.  It does mean a slight change to /proc/iomem output.
