In order to allow separation of data from text, add another layout, called data_layout. For architectures requesting separation of text and data, only text will go in core_layout and data will go in data_layout. For architectures which keep text and data together, make data_layout an alias of core_layout, that way data_layout can be used for all data manipulations, regardless of whether data is in core_layout or data_layout.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
