This snippet of assembly is used by cpu_errata.c to overwrite parts of KVM hyp
vector. It is never directly executed, so move it from .text to .rodata.

I wonder whether we should keep the SYM_CODE_START() annotation or not.
It feels weird to say "code" in a rodata section, and the alignment
doesn't matter as we copy it in place, as you noticed.

Otherwise, looks good.

Thanks,

The BTI patches hook these, but I don't see that being relevant for a
vector entry as PSTATE.BTYPE is zapped to 0.
