Hi Song, Linus,

AFAICT,  .got should go to rodata, while .sdata and .sbss should go
to (rw)data. However, reading the code before the module_memory
change, I think they were all copied to (rw)data, which is not ideal but
most likely OK.

To match the behavior before the module_memory change, I think
we need something like the following.

Frank, could you please give it a try?

Thanks,
Song

Thanks, that patch (as -patch4 on top of v6.4-rc3) fixes the boot regression for me on the rx2620:

Great! I'll give it a try on my rx2800-i2, too, but assume it wil work there, too.
