ARM: vmlinux.lds: move init sections between text and data sections
Place the init sections between the text and data sections. This means all code is grouped together at the beginning of the kernel image, and all data is at the end of the image. This avoids problems with the 24-bit branch instruction relocations becoming invalid with large initramfs images.
