[PATCH] arm: remove dead blocks in XIP_KERNEL link script

[Jonas Rabenstein]

Commit 538bf4694898 ("ARM: 8513/1: xip: Move XIP linking to a separate
file") separated all CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL related portions of the linker
script into a separate file. The copied parts depending on CONFIG_SMP
may be removed, as CONFIG_SMP (and related options) can never be
selected together with CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL. CONFIG_SMP_ON_UP has a direct
dependency on !CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL. CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL itself depends on
!ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM, but all devices specifying HAVE_SMP are also some
kind of multiplatform devices. Finally, HAVE_TCM is also only selected
by multiplatform devices and may not selected for the same reasons.

 I detected the issue with chimaera, a tool I currently develop for my bachelor
 thesis extending the undertaker tool suite (https://undertaker.cs.fau.de).
