The existing arm64 linker script uses some pre-defined section macros from
vmlinux.lds.h, all of which include a section load address attribute of
'AT(ADDR(section) - LOAD_OFFSET)'.  LOAD_OFFSET is not defined for arm64, and
defaults to zero, so this mix of section attributions has no ill effect.

For consistency and to clear the way for a possible definition of LOAD_OFFSET
add any missing AT() macros to vmlinux.lds.S.

So, what's the possible definition for LOAD_OFFSET on arm64?

Well, this is just intended as a cleanup for vmlinux.lds.S, but I think
a LOAD_OFFSET definition may be needed for kdump.

Takahiro, could you comment?
