Hi Leif,

I am dropping patch 7 from this series.

I am not able to get the ARM build failure resolved at this time.

The basic issue is that the GCC builds are using objcopy to create
and ELF image with an section named .hii with the HII data.  However,
objcopy can not set the ELF fields for the ABI correctly and some of
the linkers will complain if the ABI does not match, even if there
is no code associated with the ELF image.

We may need to consider a better solution for generating resource
sections that works for all toolchains instead of trying to use
objcopy.

Mike
