Executive summary: our linker script is a complete mess. In your case
that would be partly solved by the patch that Arnd sent on Jul 28th 2017
titled "ARM: move __bug_table into .data for XIP_KERNEL". However the
XIP linker script is still broken for similar reasons.

Ya, I thought that would happen eventually. The only way I could get 
agreement to fix existing broken XIP_KERNEL stuff was to split the linker 
script into XIP and non-XIP. But, trying to follow every vmlinux.lds.S 
change and checking to see if it is needed for vmlinux-xip.lds.S is a bit 
daunting.

It is. And even in the non-XIP case with regards to changes in 
include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h too.
