This is an updated version of the patch series I sent in late July
cleaning up the alpha architecture's linker scripts.  There are some
fixes based on comments from Richard Henderson; it has also been
rebased on top of Linus's current master.

This cross-architecture linker script cleanup project is in
preparation for adding support for building the kernel with
-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections, which is a prerequisite for
Ksplice.

Geoffrey Thomas (1):
  alpha: Clean up linker script using new linker script macros.

Tim Abbott (2):
  alpha: use .data.init_task instead of .data.init_thread.
  Optimize the ordering of sections in RW_DATA_SECTION.
