Aaron Durbin e1be5ae2f4 rmodule: put all code/data bits in one section
While debugging a crash it was discovered that ld was inserting
address space for sections that were empty depending on section
address boundaries. This led to the assumption breaking down that
on-disk payload (code/data bits) was contiguous with the address
space. When that assumption breaks down relocation updates change
the wrong memory. Fix this by making the rmodule.ld linker script
put all code/data bits into a payload section.

/*
* This linker script is used to link rmodules (relocatable modules). It
* links at zero so that relocation fixups are easy when placing the binaries
* anywhere in the address space.
*
* NOTE: The program's loadable sections (text, module_params, and data) are
* packed into the flat blob using the AT directive. The rmodule loader assumes
* the entire program resides in one contiguous address space. Therefore,
* alignment for a given section (if required) needs to be done at the end of
* the preceeding section. e.g. if the data section should be aligned to an 8
* byte address the text section should have ALIGN(8) at the end of its section.
* Otherwise there won't be a consistent mapping between the flat blob and the
* loaded program.
