This is an updated version of the patch I sent on September 6 cleaning
up the powerpc architecture's linker scripts.  The only change is that
it is 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.
