bsps/arm: Use ALIGN_WITH_INPUT
This requires at least Binutils 2.24.

I will be reverting this change ...

syntax error
so I am broken and cannot commit the patches.
It would have been nice to wait some hours to give me a chance to
comment on this.
I need a current RTEMS with the old tools and I needed to push my
changes before any dependency on tools and our time zones did not line up.
I think you will need to find another way to integrate this change if it
depends on a specific binutils. Sure the RSB has the new binutils
however this
needs to work through into the tool sets in use and that takes time.
The new Binutils are in the RPMs and the RSB. Updating Binutils is not
that time consuming.
Maybe stepping gcc, newlib and binutils was a mistake. Maybe I should
have stepped binutils by itself and avoided this issue however I did not
know this dependence existed. The gcc change is what stops me updating
my release tools at this point in time.
I have almost completed what I need to do.
Also please note the commit message states what the patch is not what
is fixes
or provides. I have no idea what this patch addresses and what it
attempts to
fix or provide.
Sorry about this, but my experience of the past is that nobody in the
RTEMS project except me cares about the linker script copy and paste
cleanup. I sent several emails to the list and got no answers.
This ALIGN_WITH_INPUT is absolutely necessary to make this linker script
reliable. We talked about this issue several months ago.

Thanks. I think the change is fine if I could use a suitable binutils.
