powerpc: Align TOC to 256 bytes
Recent toolchains force the TOC to be 256 byte aligned. We need to enforce this alignment in our linker script, otherwise pointers to our TOC variables (__toc_start, __prom_init_toc_start) could be incorrect. If they are bad, we die a few hundred instructions into boot. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
