By moving data section between rodata and bss, and disabling Kconfig LINKER_LAST_SECTION_ID by default if non-XIP (it is seems only needed for XIP), the size of zephyr.bin can be reduced significantly on non-XIP system. Signed-off-by: Dat Nguyen Duy <dat.nguyenduy@nxp.com>
…ions If a section is marked as noload, it will not be loaded into memory by the program loader. So move to use: - SECTION_PROLOGUE: because SECTION_DATA_PROLOGUE has ALIGN_WITH_INPUT attribute (on XIP) which seems is not needed for this sections - GROUP_NOLOAD_LINK_IN: as it's supposed to be used for this sections. The ROM region will be consumed if using GROUP_DATA_LINK_IN and LMA != VMA Signed-off-by: Dat Nguyen Duy <dat.nguyenduy@nxp.com>

This PR helps to reduces size of zephyr.bin on non-XIP by moving data section between rodata and bss.
Also move to use proper macro helpers when declaring no-init section.
