+Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Align TOC to 256 bytes
+
+Recent toolchains(gcc-5.2) force the TOC to be 256 byte aligned. We need
+to enforce this alignment in our linker script, otherwise pointers
+to our TOC variables (__toc_start, __prom_init_toc_start) could
+be incorrect.
+
+If they are bad, we die a few hundred instructions into boot.
