riscv: Fix alignment of RELA sections in the linker scripts

In current linker script both .efi_runtime_rel and .rela.dyn sections
are of RELA type whose entry size is either 12 (RV32) or 24 (RV64).
These two are arranged as a continuous region on purpose so that the
prelink-riscv executable can fix up the PIE addresses in one loop.

However there is an 'ALIGN(8)' between these 2 sections which might
cause a gap to be inserted between these 2 sections to satisfy the
alignment requirement on RV32. This would break the assumption of
the prelink process and generate an unbootable image.

riscv: Update alignment for some sections in linker scripts

Some sections in the linker scripts are aligned to 4 bytes, which
may cause misaligned exception on some platforms, e.g.: clearing
the bss section on 64-bit hardware if __bss_start does not start
from a naturally 8 bytes aligned address.

linker_lists: Rename sections to remove . prefix

Rename the sections used to implement linker lists so they begin with
'__u_boot_list' rather than '.u_boot_list'. The double underscore at the
start is still distinct from the single underscore used by the symbol
names.

Having a '.' in the section names conflicts with clang's ASAN
instrumentation which tries to add redzones between the linker list
elements, causing expected accesses to fail. However, clang doesn't try
to add redzones to user sections, which are names with all alphanumeric
and underscore characters.

riscv: Fix breakage caused by linker relaxation

Due to the two-instruction sequence needed to access arbitrary memory
locations, the RISC-V linker aggressively optimises memory accesses and
jumps at link-time. This is called "linker relaxation," and is discussed
in this SiFive article
<https://www.sifive.com/blog/all-aboard-part-3-linker-relaxation-in-riscv-toolchain>.
One of the optimizations in place is to assume that the __global_pointer
symbol is placed in the gp register. To quote the article:

"...The magic __global_pointer$ symbol is defined to point 0x800 bytes
past the start of the .sdata section. The 0x800 magic number allows
signed 12-bit offsets from __global_pointer$ to address symbols at the
start of the .sdata section. The linker assumes that if this symbol is
defined, then the gp register contains that value, which it can then use
to relax accesses to global symbols within that 12-bit range. The
compiler treats the gp register as a constant so it doesn't need to be
saved or restored, which means it is generally only written by _start,
the ELF entry point."

However, U-Boot instead keeps the global data pointer in gp. This causes
memory accesses and jumps optimized to use the gp pointer to fail. To
fix this problem, we undefine the __global_pointer symbol.

symbol is placed in the gp register. To quote the article:

"...The magic __global_pointer$ symbol is defined to point 0x800 bytes
past the start of the .sdata section. The 0x800 magic number allows
signed 12-bit offsets from __global_pointer$ to address symbols at the
start of the .sdata section. The linker assumes that if this symbol is
defined, then the gp register contains that value, which it can then use
to relax accesses to global symbols within that 12-bit range. The
compiler treats the gp register as a constant so it doesn't need to be
saved or restored, which means it is generally only written by _start,
the ELF entry point."

However, U-Boot instead keeps the global data pointer in gp. This causes
memory accesses and jumps optimized to use the gp pointer to fail. To
fix this problem, we undefine the __global_pointer symbol.

riscv: Fix breakage caused by linker relaxation

Due to the two-instruction sequence needed to access arbitrary memory
locations, the RISC-V linker aggressively optimises memory accesses and
jumps at link-time. This is called "linker relaxation," and is discussed
in this SiFive article
<https://www.sifive.com/blog/all-aboard-part-3-linker-relaxation-in-riscv-toolchain>.
One of the optimizations in place is to assume that the __global_pointer
symbol is placed in the gp register. To quote the article:

"...The magic __global_pointer$ symbol is defined to point 0x800 bytes
past the start of the .sdata section. The 0x800 magic number allows
signed 12-bit offsets from __global_pointer$ to address symbols at the
start of the .sdata section. The linker assumes that if this symbol is
defined, then the gp register contains that value, which it can then use
to relax accesses to global symbols within that 12-bit range. The
compiler treats the gp register as a constant so it doesn't need to be
saved or restored, which means it is generally only written by _start,
the ELF entry point."

However, U-Boot instead keeps the global data pointer in gp. This causes
memory accesses and jumps optimized to use the gp pointer to fail. To

riscv: Fix breakage caused by linker relaxation

Due to the two-instruction sequence needed to access arbitrary memory
locations, the RISC-V linker aggressively optimises memory accesses and
jumps at link-time. This is called "linker relaxation," and is discussed
in this SiFive article
<https://www.sifive.com/blog/all-aboard-part-3-linker-relaxation-in-riscv-toolchain>.
One of the optimizations in place is to assume that the __global_pointer
symbol is placed in the gp register. To quote the article:

"...The magic __global_pointer$ symbol is defined to point 0x800 bytes
past the start of the .sdata section. The 0x800 magic number allows
signed 12-bit offsets from __global_pointer$ to address symbols at the
start of the .sdata section. The linker assumes that if this symbol is
defined, then the gp register contains that value, which it can then use
to relax accesses to global symbols within that 12-bit range. The
compiler treats the gp register as a constant so it doesn't need to be
saved or restored, which means it is generally only written by _start,
the ELF entry point."

However, U-Boot instead keeps the global data pointer in gp. This causes
memory accesses and jumps optimized to use the gp pointer to fail. To
fix this problem, we undefine the __global_pointer symbol.

"...The magic __global_pointer$ symbol is defined to point 0x800 bytes
past the start of the .sdata section. The 0x800 magic number allows
signed 12-bit offsets from __global_pointer$ to address symbols at the
start of the .sdata section. The linker assumes that if this symbol is
defined, then the gp register contains that value, which it can then use
to relax accesses to global symbols within that 12-bit range. The
compiler treats the gp register as a constant so it doesn't need to be
saved or restored, which means it is generally only written by _start,
the ELF entry point."

However, U-Boot instead keeps the global data pointer in gp. This causes
memory accesses and jumps optimized to use the gp pointer to fail. To
fix this problem, we undefine the __global_pointer symbol.

riscv: Fix breakage caused by linker relaxation

Due to the two-instruction sequence needed to access arbitrary memory
locations, the RISC-V linker aggressively optimises memory accesses and
jumps at link-time. This is called "linker relaxation," and is discussed
in this SiFive article
<https://www.sifive.com/blog/all-aboard-part-3-linker-relaxation-in-riscv-toolchain>.
One of the optimizations in place is to assume that the __global_pointer
symbol is placed in the gp register. To quote the article:

"...The magic __global_pointer$ symbol is defined to point 0x800 bytes
past the start of the .sdata section. The 0x800 magic number allows
signed 12-bit offsets from __global_pointer$ to address symbols at the
start of the .sdata section. The linker assumes that if this symbol is
defined, then the gp register contains that value, which it can then use
to relax accesses to global symbols within that 12-bit range. The
compiler treats the gp register as a constant so it doesn't need to be
saved or restored, which means it is generally only written by _start,
the ELF entry point."

However, U-Boot instead keeps the global data pointer in gp. This causes
memory accesses and jumps optimized to use the gp pointer to fail. To
fix this problem, we undefine the __global_pointer symbol.

riscv: Fix breakage caused by linker relaxation

Due to the two-instruction sequence needed to access arbitrary memory
locations, the RISC-V linker aggressively optimises memory accesses and
jumps at link-time. This is called "linker relaxation," and is discussed
in this SiFive article
<https://www.sifive.com/blog/all-aboard-part-3-linker-relaxation-in-riscv-toolchain>.
One of the optimizations in place is to assume that the __global_pointer
symbol is placed in the gp register. To quote the article:

"...The magic __global_pointer$ symbol is defined to point 0x800 bytes
past the start of the .sdata section. The 0x800 magic number allows
signed 12-bit offsets from __global_pointer$ to address symbols at the
start of the .sdata section. The linker assumes that if this symbol is
defined, then the gp register contains that value, which it can then use
to relax accesses to global symbols within that 12-bit range. The
compiler treats the gp register as a constant so it doesn't need to be
saved or restored, which means it is generally only written by _start,
the ELF entry point."

However, U-Boot instead keeps the global data pointer in gp. This causes
memory accesses and jumps optimized to use the gp pointer to fail. To
fix this problem, we undefine the __global_pointer symbol.

past the start of the .sdata section. The 0x800 magic number allows
signed 12-bit offsets from __global_pointer$ to address symbols at the
start of the .sdata section. The linker assumes that if this symbol is
defined, then the gp register contains that value, which it can then use
to relax accesses to global symbols within that 12-bit range. The
compiler treats the gp register as a constant so it doesn't need to be
saved or restored, which means it is generally only written by _start,
the ELF entry point."

However, U-Boot instead keeps the global data pointer in gp. This causes
memory accesses and jumps optimized to use the gp pointer to fail. To
fix this problem, we undefine the __global_pointer symbol.

riscv: Fix clear bss loop in the start-up code

For RV64, it will use sd instruction to clear t0

if the difference between__bss_strat and __bss_end

overflow and acks like system hang.

riscv: Fix breakage caused by linker relaxation
