x86: unify arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux_*.lds
Look at the: diff -u arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux_*.lds output and realize that they're basially exactly the same except for trivial naming differences, and the fact that the 64-bit version has a "pgtable" thing. So unify them. There's some trivial cleanup there (make the output format a Kconfig thing rather than doing #ifdef's for it, and unify both 32-bit and 64-bit BSS end to "_ebss", where 32-bit used to use the traditional "_end"), but other than that it's really very mindless and straigt conversion. For example, I think we should aim to remove "startup_32" vs "startup_64", and just call it "startup", and get rid of one more difference. I didn't do that. Also, notice the comment in the unified vmlinux.lds.S talks about "head_64" and "startup_32" which is an odd and incorrect mix, but that was actually what the old 64-bit only lds file had, so the confusion isn't new, and now that mixing is arguably more accurate thanks to the vmlinux.lds.S file being shared between the two cases ;) [ Impact: cleanup, unification ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
