      x86: unify arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux_*.lds · 51b26ada
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Look at the:

	diff -u arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux_*.lds

output and realize that they're basially exactly the same except for
trivial naming differences, and the fact that the 64-bit version has a
"pgtable" thing.

So unify them.

There's some trivial cleanup there (make the output format a Kconfig thing
rather than doing #ifdef's for it, and unify both 32-bit and 64-bit BSS
end to "_ebss", where 32-bit used to use the traditional "_end"), but
other than that it's really very mindless and straigt conversion.

For example, I think we should aim to remove "startup_32" vs "startup_64",
and just call it "startup", and get rid of one more difference. I didn't
do that.

Also, notice the comment in the unified vmlinux.lds.S talks about
"head_64" and "startup_32" which is an odd and incorrect mix, but that was
actually what the old 64-bit only lds file had, so the confusion isn't
new, and now that mixing is arguably more accurate thanks to the
vmlinux.lds.S file being shared between the two cases ;)

      x86: beautify vmlinux_64.lds.S · 0a3ec21f
      Sam Ravnborg authored 
      Beautify vmlinux_64.lds.S:

 - Use tabs for indent
 - Located curly braces like in C code
 - Rearranged a few comments

There is no functional changes in this patch

The beautification is done to prepare a unification
of the _32 and the _64 variants of the linker scripts.
