[Xen-devel] [PATCH 0/2] eliminate some section start symbols

["Jan Beulich" <JBeulich@xxxxxxxx>]

Section start symbols frequently obscure the actual symbol name living
at the start of the section. Eliminate them where they can be replaced
by linker resolved .startof.* symbols. (Section end symbols may have
the same undesirable effect, but they're less easy to eliminate, as
they'd need to be represented by the sum of .startof.<section> and
.sizeof.<section>).

1: x86: force suitable alignment in sources rather than in linker script
2: make use of .startof.() and .sizeof.() assembler expressions
