  xtensa: allow merging vectors into .text section (2017-03-01 12:32:50 -0800)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Xtensa improvements for v4.11:

- clean up bootable image build targets: provide separate 'Image',
  'zImage' and 'uImage' make targets that only build corresponding
  image type. Make 'all' build all images appropriate for a platform;
- allow merging vectors code into .text section as a preparation step
  for XIP support;
- fix handling external FDT when the kernel is built without
  BLK_DEV_INITRD support.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Max Filippov (3):
      xtensa: move parse_tag_fdt out of #ifdef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD
      xtensa: clean up bootable image build targets
      xtensa: allow merging vectors into .text section
