[PATCH] CRIS v10: vmlinux.lds.S Fix kernel oops on boot and use common defines

[Jesper Nilsson]

- Move alignment to page size of init data outside ifdef for BLK_DEV_INITRD.
  The reservation up to page size of memory after init data was previously
  not done if BLK_DEV_INITRD was undefined.
  This caused a kernel oops when init memory pages were freed after startup,
  data placed in the same page as the last init memory would also be freed
  and reused, with disastrous results.

- Use macros for initcalls and .text sections.

- Replace hardcoded page size constant with PAGE_SIZE define.

- Change include/asm-cris/page.h to use the _AC macro to instead
  of testing __ASSEMBLY__.

NOTE: This patch supercedes
arch-cris-arch-v10-vmlinuxldss-fix-boot-problem.patch
by Yuusei KUWANA <kuwana@xxxxxxxxxx> in the -mm tree.

That patch only restricts which sections are counted as init memory,
and does not solve the underlying problem (that memory that is not part
of init data can be freed)
