[U-Boot] [RFC PATCH] arm: lds: Remove libgcc eabi exception handling tables

[Michal Simek]

Remove ARM eabi exception handling tables (for frame unwinding).
AFAICT, u-boot stubs away the frame unwiding routines, so the tables will
more or less just consume space. It should be OK to remove them.

Other options could be to complete u-boot/arch/arm/lib/* so that
libgcc routines with exception handling dont get pulled in. Or
to avoid user code (like the mentioned patch) which causes external
libgcc functions to get pulled in...
