We use many arrays created by the linker. Each time a new one is added we have to add it to the linker script of all architectures. This series adds a common RO_DATA_SECTION to collect the arrays which is then used in all linker scripts. I don't like fiddling with linker scripts. It's dangerous and asking for regressions. Some testing feedback especially for the !ARM architectures is greatly appreciated.
