    [PATCH] ia64: force all kernel sections into one and the same segment · 75b662dc
    Keith Owens authored
    Older versions of the linker do not handle cross-segment segment-relative
    relocations properly.  This becomes a real problem when the linker decides
    to put .text and .text.init into different segments (for whatever reasons)
    because in that case, broken linkers will produce a broken unwind section,
    which can cause nasty Heisenbugs, where, for example, unwinding may or may
    not work depending on the exact value of the IP in a function.
