[PATCH v3 15/23] ARM: linker script: create separate PT_LOAD segments for text, rodata, and data

[Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>]

Fix the linker scripts to generate three distinct PT_LOAD segments with
correct permissions instead of combining .rodata with .data.

Before this fix, the linker auto-generated only two PT_LOAD segments:
1. Text segment (PF_R|PF_X)
2. Data segment (PF_R|PF_W) - containing .rodata, .data, .bss, etc.

This caused .rodata to be mapped with write permissions when
pbl_mmu_setup_from_elf() set up MMU permissions based on ELF segments,
defeating the W^X protection that commit d9ccb0cf14 intended to provide.

With explicit PHDRS directives, we now generate three segments:
1. text segment (PF_R|PF_X): .text and related code sections
2. rodata segment (PF_R): .rodata and unwind tables
3. data segment (PF_R|PF_W): .data, .bss, and related sections

This ensures pbl_mmu_setup_from_elf() correctly maps .rodata as
read-only (MAP_CACHED_RO) instead of read-write (MAP_CACHED).
