[PATCH v2 10/29] vmlinux.lds.h: Move NOTES into RO_DATA

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2019-10-11 00:06:36
Also in: linux-alpha, linux-arch, linux-s390, linuxppc-dev, lkml
Subsystem: alpha port, arm port, arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), c-sky architecture, generic include/asm header files, linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), microblaze architecture, mips, nios2 architecture, openrisc architecture, parisc architecture, qualcomm hexagon architecture, risc-v architecture, s390 architecture, sparc + ultrasparc (sparc/sparc64), superh, synopsys arc architecture, tensilica xtensa port (xtensa), the rest, user-mode linux (uml), x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Richard Henderson, Matt Turner, Magnus Lindholm, Russell King, Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Guo Ren, Arnd Bergmann, Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Ellerman, Michal Simek, Thomas Bogendoerfer, Dinh Nguyen, Simon Schuster, Jonas Bonn, Stefan Kristiansson, Stafford Horne, "James E.J. Bottomley", Helge Deller, Brian Cain, Paul Walmsley, Palmer Dabbelt, Albert Ou, Heiko Carstens, Vasily Gorbik, Alexander Gordeev, "David S. Miller", Andreas Larsson, Yoshinori Sato, Rich Felker, John Paul Adrian Glaubitz, Vineet Gupta, Chris Zankel, Max Filippov, Linus Torvalds, Richard Weinberger, Anton Ivanov, Johannes Berg, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen 

The .notes section should be non-executable read-only data. As such,
move it to the RO_DATA macro instead of being per-architecture defined.
