UPSTREAM: vmlinux.lds.h: allow arch specific handling of ro_after_init data section
commit c74ba8b3480d ("arch: Introduce post-init read-only memory") introduced the __ro_after_init attribute which allows to add variables to the ro_after_init data section. This new section was added to rodata, even though it contains writable data. This in turn causes problems on architectures which mark the page table entries read-only that point to rodata very early. This patch allows architectures to implement an own handling of the .data..ro_after_init section. Usually that would be: - mark the rodata section read-only very early - mark the ro_after_init section read-only within mark_rodata_ro Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Bug: 31660652 Change-Id: If68cb4d86f88678c9bac8c47072775ab85ef5770 (cherry picked from commit 32fb2fc5c357fb99616bbe100dbcb27bc7f5d045) Signed-off-by: Sami Tolvanen <samitolvanen@google.com>
