[Minios-devel] [UNIKRAFT PATCHv5 03/23] plat/common: Move global variables defined in link scripts to a header

[Jia He <justin.he@xxxxxxx>]

From: Wei Chen <wei.chen@xxxxxxx>

The global variables defined in link scripts like _text, _etext and _end
are declared in multiple files. We use a header to include these global
variables to avoid so many duplicated declarations.
