Please create an ARM private asm/sections.h header, which should include the asm-generic version, and also declare the additional symbol. Thanks.

For an XIP build, _edata_loc, not _etext, represents the end of the binary image that will be programmed into ROM and mapped into the MODULES_VADDR area. With an XIP kernel, nothing is loaded into RAM before boot, meaning you have to take into account the size of the entire binary image that was programmed, including the init data values that will be copied to RAM during kernel boot. This fixes the bug where you might lose the end of your kernel area after page table setup is complete.
