SDEI needs to calculate an offset in the trampoline page too. Move
the extern char[] to sections.h.

This patch just moves code around.

To avoid having mappings that are writable and executable at the same
time, split the init region into a .init.text region that is mapped
read-only, and a .init.data region that is mapped non-executable.

This is possible now that the alternative patching occurs via the linear
mapping, and the linear alias of the init region is always mapped writable
(but never executable).

Since the alternatives descriptions themselves are read-only data, move
those into the .init.text region.

Resume from hibernate needs to clean any text executed by the kernel with
the MMU off to the PoC. Collect these functions together into the
.idmap.text section as all this code is tightly coupled and also needs
the same cleaning after resume.

Data is more complicated, secondary_holding_pen_release is written with
the MMU on, clean and invalidated, then read with the MMU off. In contrast
__boot_cpu_mode is written with the MMU off, the corresponding cache line
is invalidated, so when we read it with the MMU on we don't get stale data.
These cache maintenance operations conflict with each other if the values
are within a Cache Writeback Granule (CWG) of each other.
Collect the data into two sections .mmuoff.data.read and .mmuoff.data.write,
the linker script ensures mmuoff.data.write section is aligned to the
architectural maximum CWG of 2KB.

Each time new section markers are added, kernel/vmlinux.ld.S is updated,
and new extern char __start_foo[] definitions are scattered through the
tree.

Create asm/include/sections.h to collect these definitions (and include
the existing asm-generic version).
