This change makes arch/powerpc/boot/README obsolete.
Last time I looked, the COFF loader liked only .text, .data and .bss.
But maybe hack-coff needs some tweaking to modify also other sections.
I was about to do the same changes. There are some comments about the
COFF layout, and PReP, in arch/powerpc/kernel/head_32.S. Some of it can
go.
