To protect sections on page table level each section
needs to be aligned on page size (4KB).

Set sections alignment in linker script.

Add _compressed/_ecompressed symbols to access '.rodata..compressed'
section content in the same way other sections are accessed.
This is useful when applying memory attributes of the section.
