Re: [PATCH v6 4/4] risc/purgatory: Add linker script

Hi Nick

Thanks for catching this. It should have said

risc/purgatory: Remove profile optimization flags

Will fix it on my local branch in case there is a next version of the
series. Otherwise, please the maintainer fix the subject.

Thanks!

If PGO is enabled, the purgatory ends up with multiple .text sections.
This is not supported by kexec and crashes the system.

Hi Ricardo,
Thanks for the series.  Does this patch 4/4 need a new online commit
description? It's not adding a linker script (maybe an earlier version
was).
