[U-Boot,V2,1/5] ARM: fix u-boot.lds for -ffunction-sections/-fdata-sections

From: Stephen Warren <swarren@nvidia.com>

When -ffunction-sections or -fdata-section are used, symbols are placed
into sections such as .data.eserial1_device and .bss.serial_current.
Update the linker script to explicitly include these. Without this
change (at least with my gcc-4.5.3 built using crosstool-ng), I see that
the sections do end up being included, but __bss_end__ gets set to the
same value as __bss_start.

v2: Removed changes from some entries where it wasn't needed.

Applied (this patch only in the series) to u-boot-arm/master, thanks!

Correction applied was V3, not V2, of the patch.
