Subject: Re: [PATCH 17/24] Rename .text.reset to .text..reset.

Haavard,

How does the .text.reset section get populated on the avr32 architecture?

As far as I can tell, there's no code in the kernel to put anything in the 
.text.reset section, yet the linker script places that section at the 
start of the text section.
