Since commit 0a6b58c5cd0d ("lockdep: fix static memory detection even
more") the lockdep code uses is_kernel_core_data(), is_kernel_rodata()
and init_section_contains() to verify if a lock is located inside a
kernel static data section.
This change triggers a failure on LoongArch, for which the vmlinux.lds.S
script misses to put the locks (as part of in the .data.rel symbols)
into the Linux data section.
This patch fixes the lockdep problem by moving *(.data.rel*) symbols
into the kernel data section (from _sdata to _edata).
Additionally, move other wrongly assigned symbols too:
- altinstructions into the _initdata section,
- PLT symbols behind the read-only section, and
- *(.la_abs) into the data section.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
