[PATCH 5.15 054/148] vmlinux.lds.h: CFI: Reduce alignment of jump-table to function alignment

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Will Deacon <will@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 13b0566962914e167cb3238fbe29ced618f07a27 upstream.

Due to undocumented, hysterical raisins on x86, the CFI jump-table
sections in .text are needlessly aligned to PMD_SIZE in the vmlinux
linker script. When compiling a CFI-enabled arm64 kernel with a 64KiB
page-size, a PMD maps 512MiB of virtual memory and so the .text section
increases to a whopping 940MiB and blows the final Image up to 960MiB.
Others report a link failure.

Since the CFI jump-table requires only instruction alignment, reduce the
alignment directives to function alignment for parity with other parts
of the .text section. This reduces the size of the .text section for the
aforementioned 64KiB page size arm64 kernel to 19MiB for a much more
reasonable total Image size of 39MiB.
