[PATCH] Linker fix for data-only sections

Doh - I had forgotten that.  Of course this only applies to EABI 
conformant ARM binaries.  So maybe you ought to check for non-eabi 
targets and handle them appropriately ?

But there is a SEC_CODE flag which is present in code sections and 
absent in data sections.
