This patch series aims to do the first step towards linker scripts
synchronization. Linker scripts for arm and x86 share a lot of common
sections and in order to make the process of changing/improving/syncing
them, these sections shall be defined in just one place.

The first patch creates an empty header file xen.lds.h to store the
constructs mutual to both x86 and arm linker scripts. It also includes
this header in the scripts.

The second patch populates xen.lds.h with the first portion of common
macros and replaces the original contructs with these helpers.

Michal Orzel (2):
  xen: Introduce a header to store common linker scripts content
  xen: Populate xen.lds.h and make use of its macros
