arm64: move elf notes into readonly segment
The current vmlinux.lds.S places the notes sections between the end of rw data and start of bss. This means that _edata doesn't really point to the end of data. Since notes are read-only, this patch moves them to the read-only segment so that _edata does point to the end of initialized rw data.
