__init_begin/_end symbols should be inside sections as well,
otherwise the relocatable kernel gets confused when freeing
init sections in the wrong place.

32 bit:
- explicit page align .bss
- move ALING() out of .brk output section
- discard *(.eh_frame)
64 bit:
- move ALIGN() out of .bss output section
- move ALIGN() out of .brk output section
- use a dedicated section to define _end

32 bit:
- move __init_end outside the .bss output section
It really did not belong in there

32 bit:
- increase alignment from 4 to 8 for .parainstructions
- increase alignment from 4 to 8 for .altinstructions
64 bit:
- move ALIGN() outside output section for .altinstructions
None of the above should result in any functional change.

32-bit:
- Move definition of __init_begin outside output_section
because it covers more than one section
- Move ALIGN() for end-of-section inside .smp_locks output section.
Same effect but the intent is better documented that
we need both start and end aligned.
64-bit:
- Move ALIGN() outside output section in .init.setup
- Deleted unused __smp_alt_* symbols
None of the above should result in any functional change.

For 64 bit the following functional changes are introduced:
- .data.page_aligned has moved
- .data.cacheline_aligned has moved
- .data.read_mostly has moved
- ALIGN() moved out of output section for .data.cacheline_aligned
- ALIGN() moved out of output section for .data.page_aligned
Notice that 32 bit and 64 bit has different location of _edata.
.data_nosave is 32 bit only as 64 bit is special due to PERCPU.

32 bit x86 had a dedicated .text.head output section,
whereas 64 bit had it all in a single output section.
In the unified version the dedicated .text.head output section
was kept to have full control over the head code.
32 bit:
- Moved definition of _stext to the linker script.
The definition is located _after_ .text.page_aligned as this
is what 32 bit did before.
The ALIGN(8) was introduced so we hit the exact same address
(on the tested config) before and after the move.
I assume that it is a bug that _stext did not cover the
.text.page_aligned section - if this is true it can be fixed
in a follow-up patch (and the ugly ALIGN() can be dropped).

PHDRS are not equal for the two - so
use ifdefs to cover up for that.
On the assumption that they may become equal the ifdef
is inside the PHDRS definiton.
