[PATCH] riscv: force __cpu_up_ variables to put in data section

From: Zong Li
Date: Thu Apr 30 2020 - 05:53:33 EST


Put __cpu_up_stack_pointer and __cpu_up_task_pointer in data section.
Currently, these two variables are put in bss section, there is a
potential risk that secondary harts get the uninitialized value before
main hart finishing the bss clearing. In this case, all secondary
harts would go through the waiting loop and enable the MMU before
main hart set up the page table.
