Hi Linus,

This patch series contains patches cleaning up the linker scripts on
several architectures architectures (as well as one improvement to the
architecture-independent macros).  Everything here has been acked or
reviewed by Sam Ravnborg.  Please merge.

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.

Tim Abbott (13):
  Optimize the ordering of sections in RW_DATA_SECTION.
  m32r: make PAGE_SIZE available to assembly.
  m32r: Define THREAD_SIZE only once.
  m32r: Move GET_THREAD_INFO definition out of asm/thread_info.h.
  m32r: Remove unused .altinstructions and .exit.* code from linker
    script.
  m32r: Move the spi_stack_top and spu_stack_top into .init.data
    section.
  m32r: Cleanup linker script using new linker script macros.
  parisc: Clean up linker script using new linker script macros.
  parisc: Remove useless altinstructions code copied from x86.
  xtensa: Cleanup linker script using new linker script macros.
  um: Clean up linker script using standard macros.
  h8300: Cleanup linker script using new linker script macros.
  mn10300: Clean up linker script using higher-level macros.
