Commit 2217b9826246 ("binfmt_flat: revert "binfmt_flat: don't offset
the data start"") restored offsetting the start of the data section by
a number of words defined by MAX_SHARED_LIBS. As a result, since
MAX_SHARED_LIBS is never 0, a gap between the text and data sections
always exist. For architecture which cannot support a such gap between
the text and data sections (e.g. riscv nommu), flat binary programs
cannot be executed.

To allow an architecture to request contiguous text and data sections,
introduce the macro FLAT_TEXT_DATA_NO_GAP which can be defined by the
architecture in its asm/flat.h file. With this change, the macro
DATA_GAP_WORDS is conditionally defined in binfmt_flat.c to
MAX_SHARED_LIBS for architectures tolerating the gap
(FLAT_TEXT_DATA_NO_GAP undefined case) and to 0 when
FLAT_TEXT_DATA_NO_GAP is defined. DATA_GAP_WORDS is used in
load_flat_file() to calculate the data section length and start
position.

The definition of FLAT_TEXT_DATA_NO_GAP by an architecture also
prevents the use of the separate text/data load case (when
FLAT_FLAG_RAM and FLAT_FLAG_GZIP are not set with NOMMU kernels).

Please make this a CONFIG_* option selected by the architecture,
which also allows to use IS_ENABLED() to error out early for
your check.
