Discard *.exit.text sections on runtime. We cannot do this on link time
because of the way BUG macros are implemented. If "__exit function" calls
one of those macros, __bug_table section will reference this function.
This is similar to ".altinstructions" situation on i386.
*.exit.data seems to be OK in this respect and is discarded on link
time.

The PPC32 kernel puts platform-specific functions into separate sections so
that unneeded parts of it can be freed when we've booted and actually
worked out what we're running on today.
This makes kallsyms ignore those functions, because they're not between
_[se]text or _[se]inittext. Rather than teaching kallsyms about the
various pmac/chrp/etc sections, this patch adds '_[se]extratext' markers
for kallsyms.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
