Thanks for tracking that down. INIT_TEXT_SECTION is:
#define INIT_TEXT_SECTION(inittext_align) \ . = ALIGN(inittext_align); \ .init.text : AT(ADDR(.init.text) - LOAD_OFFSET) { \ VMLINUX_SYMBOL(_sinittext) = .; \ INIT_TEXT \ VMLINUX_SYMBOL(_einittext) = .; \ }
So there are only 3 code changes here: (1) wrapping _sinittext and _einittext in VMLINUX_SYMBOL (2) Adding the AT(ADDR(.init.text) - LOAD_OFFSET) (3) The added ALIGN(PAGE_SIZE) before the start of .init.text.
I don't yet see why any of these would be problematic; would you be willing to try them and figure out the precise cause?
I suspect it'd be easiest for you to try those individual changes interactively, but if it's not trivial for you, I'd be happy to generate a patch series splitting out this change into pieces for you to bisect.
