This patch extends the linker script language to include SECTION_FLAGS
on an output section statement. The purpose of the flags is to ensure
that all input sections assigned to the output section either have the
flags set or cleared.
This version of the patch sets the infrastructure but does not define a
backend implementation. I will provide that along with additional
testcases when I contribute the Powerpc VLE port.
This patch was originally discussed in the thread beginning here:

Does this look okay to install?
Thanks,
Catherine
