Subject[PATCH] tile: handle RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA
Date
This is the minimal change to handle RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA.
The tile architecture already marks RO_DATA as read-only in
the kernel, so grouping RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA with RO_DATA, as is
done by default, means the kernel faults in init when it tries
to write to RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA. For now, just move it past the
end of the RODATA section so it is not specially treated.
---
This is just to fix 4.9; I will post a more complete fix shortly
targeting 4.10.
