Park Ju Hyung ab2c5752c3 linker: convert 'mov pc' instruction to 'bx'
From Linux 3.17 6ebbf2ce437b33022d30badd49dc94d33ecfa498:

    ARMv6 and greater introduced a new instruction ("bx") which can be used
    to return from function calls.  Recent CPUs perform better when the
    "bx lr" instruction is used rather than the "mov pc, lr" instruction,
    and this sequence is strongly recommended to be used by the ARM
    architecture manual (section A.4.1.1).

Elliott Hughes 996524383f Don't zero r1 on entry to the dynamic linker.
There's no need: __linker_init only takes one argument.

Also remove the arm __CTOR_LIST__; we use .init_array and .fini_array instead
of .ctor and .dtor anyway, and I don't think we've ever supported the latter.
