[RFC PATCH 1/6] kvm: arm64: Set up .hyp.rodata ELF section

From: David Brazdil
Date: Thu Nov 19 2020 - 11:26:11 EST


We will need to recognize pointers in .rodata specific to hyp, so
establish a .hyp.rodata ELF section. Merge it with the existing
.hyp.data..ro_after_init as they are treated the same at runtime.
