Subject[PATCH][v850] Give v850 its own version of the vmlinux.lds.h RODATA macro
Date
From
Linus, please apply.

While it would be nice to keep using the generic version of RODATA, the
v850's linker-script structure is sufficiently different from that of
typical archs that it's not possible to use RODATA as it's currently
defined. I earlier suggested splitting the generic definition of RODATA
into `RODATA_CONTENTS' and `RODATA' (a wrapper around RODATA_CONTENTS)
where most archs would use RODATA, and the v850 would use
RODATA_CONTENTS, however Kai didn't like that idea.

It _may_ be possible to rewrite the v850's linker scripts into something
more typical (using lots of individual output sections), but it doesn't
seem at all straightforward, so I don't have the time to do it right
now.

Anyway, this is the short-term work-around so that Linus's kernel works
on the v850.
