[Xen-devel] [PATCH] xen: arm: include .text.cold and .text.unlikely in text area

[Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Otherwise functions in these sections can end up between .text and .rodata
which is after _etext and therefore gets made non-executable.

This matches x86 (although it was done there for different reasons).

Jan, any reason why x86 doesn't just use .text.*?
