Subject: [PATCH 11/12] powerpc: Check prom_init for disallowed sections
Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2018 13:49:59 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181015025000.4522-11-benh@kernel.crashing.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181015025000.4522-1-benh@kernel.crashing.org>

prom_init.c must not modify the kernel image outside
of the .bss.prominit section. Thus make sure that
prom_init.o doesn't have anything in any of these:

	.data
	.bss
	.init.data
