[ Upstream commit 2225a8dda263edc35a0e8b858fe2945cf6240fde ]
This is a bug that causes early crashes in builds with an .exit.text
section smaller than a page and an .init.text section that ends in the
beginning of a physical page (this is kinda random, which might
explain why this wasn't really encountered before).
The init sections are ordered like this:
.init.text
.exit.text
.init.data
Currently, these sections aren't page aligned.
Because the init code might become read-only at runtime and because
the .init.text section can potentially reside on the same physical
page as .init.data, the beginning of .init.data might be mapped
read-only along with .init.text.
Then when the kernel tries to modify a variable in .init.data (like
kthreadd_done, used in kernel_init()) the kernel panics.
To avoid this, make _einittext page aligned and also align .exit.text
to make sure .init.data is always seperated from the text segments.
