.. allowing it to be write-protected just as other read-only data
under CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA.

Replace the hardcoded list of initialization functions for each CPU
vendor by a list in an ELF section, which is read at initialization in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.c to fill the cpu_devs[] array. The ELF
section, named .x86cpuvendor.init, is reclaimed after boot, and
contains entries of type "struct cpu_vendor_dev" which associates a
vendor number with a pointer to a "struct cpu_dev" structure.
This first modification allows to remove all the VENDOR_init_cpu()
functions.
This patch also removes the hardcoded calls to early_init_amd() and
early_init_intel(). Instead, we add a "c_early_init" member to the
cpu_dev structure, which is then called if not NULL by the generic CPU
initialization code. Unfortunately, in early_cpu_detect(), this_cpu is
not yet set, so we have to use the cpu_devs[] array directly.
This patch is part of the Linux Tiny project, and is needed for
further patch that will allow to disable compilation of unused CPU
support code.

It's much better to use PAGE_SIZE then magic 4096
(though it's almost synonym in most cases on x86 but
not for *all* cases ;)

While examining vmlinux namelist on i386 (nm -v vmlinux) I noticed :
c01021d0 t es7000_rename_gsi
c010221a T es7000_start_cpu
<Big Hole>
c0103000 T thread_saved_pc
and
c0113218 T acpi_restore_state_mem
c0113219 T acpi_save_state_mem
<Big Hole>
c0114000 t wakeup_code
This is because arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_32.S forces a .text alignment
of 4096 bytes. (I have no idea if it is really needed, since
arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_64.S uses a 16 bytes alignment *only*)
So arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o also has this alignment
arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o: file format elf32-i386
Sections:
Idx Name Size VMA LMA File off Algn
0 .text 00018c94 00000000 00000000 00001000 2**12
CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, RELOC, READONLY, CODE
But as arch/x86/kernel/acpi/wakeup_32.o is not the first object linked
into arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o, linker had to build several holes to meet
alignement requirements, because of .o nestings in the kbuild process.
This can be solved by using a special section, .text.page_aligned, so that
no holes are needed.
# size vmlinux.before vmlinux.after
text data bss dec hex filename
4619942 422838 458752 5501532 53f25c vmlinux.before
4610534 422838 458752 5492124 53cd9c vmlinux.after
This saves 9408 bytes

This patch consolidate all definitions of .init.text, .init.data
and .exit.text, .exit.data section definitions in
the generic vmlinux.lds.h.
This is a preparational patch - alone it does not buy
us much good.
