[PATCH 7/7 v2] arm: remove redundant section alignments

[Ilias Apalodimas]

Previous patches cleaning up linker symbols, also merged any explicit
. = ALIGN(x); into section definitions -- e.g '.bss ALIGN(x) :' instead
of '. - ALIGN(x); bss : {...}'

However, if the output address is not specified then one will be chosen
for the section. This address will be adjusted to fit the alignment
requirement of the output section following the strictest alignment of
any input section contained within the output section. So let's get rid
of the redundant ALIGN directives.

It's worth noting that the only platform the alignment is preserved on
.rel.dyn is mach-zynq, which was explicitly  aligning that section on an 8b
boundary instead of the automatically chosen 4b alignment.
