i think arm has -z relro support however PT_GNU_RELRO
header is not emitted if there is no DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END
specification in the linker script (which we probably
only have on linux, since shared libs and related features
are not used on baremetal targets).

i assume we could change the arm elf linker script, but
i don't know what are the exact implications of that.
