Subject: powerpc/vmlinux.lds: Move _edata down
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.32-rc1~675^2~49
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=903444e4297264ec0959e886695911659edb425c;p=profile%2Fivi%2Fkernel-adaptation-intel-automotive.git

powerpc/vmlinux.lds: Move _edata down

Currently _edata does not include several data sections, this causes
the kernel's report of memory usage at boot to not match reality, and
also prevents kmemleak from working - because it scan between _sdata
and _edata for pointers to allocated memory.

This mirrors a similar change made recently to the x86 linker script.
