+/**
+ * A linker list is constructed by grouping together linker input
+ * sections, each containing one entry of the list. Each input section
+ * contains a constant initialized variable which holds the entry's
+ * content. Linker list input sections are constructed from the list
+ * and entry names, plus a prefix which allows grouping all lists
+ * together. Assuming _list and _entry are the list and entry names,
+ * then the corresponding input section name is
+ *
+ * .u_boot_list_ + 2_ + @_list + _2_ + @_entry
+ *
+ * and the C variable name is
+ *
+ * _u_boot_list + _2_ + @_list + _2_ + @_entry
+ *
+ * This ensures uniqueness for both input section and C variable name.
+ *
+ * Note that the names differ only in the first character, "." for the
+ * section and "_" for the variable, so that the linker cannot confuse
+ * section and symbol names. From now on, both names will be referred
+ * to as
+ *
+ * %u_boot_list_ + 2_ + @_list + _2_ + @_entry
+ *
+ * Entry variables need never be referred to directly.
+ *
+ * The naming scheme for input sections allows grouping all linker lists
+ * into a single linker output section and grouping all entries for a
+ * single list.
+ *
+ * Note the two '_2_' constant components in the names: their presence
+ * allows putting a start and end symbols around a list, by mapping
+ * these symbols to sections names with components "1" (before) and
+ * "3" (after) instead of "2" (within).
+ * Start and end symbols for a list can generally be defined as
+ *
+ * %u_boot_list_2_ + @_list + _1_...
+ * %u_boot_list_2_ + @_list + _3_...
+ *
+ * Start and end symbols for the whole of the linker lists area can be
+ * defined as
+ *
+ * %u_boot_list_1_...
+ * %u_boot_list_3_...
+ *
+ * Here is an example of the sorted sections which result from a list
+ * "array" made up of three entries : "first", "second" and "third",
+ * iterated at least once.
+ *
+ * .u_boot_list_2_array_1
+ * .u_boot_list_2_array_2_first
+ * .u_boot_list_2_array_2_second
+ * .u_boot_list_2_array_2_third
+ * .u_boot_list_2_array_3
+ *
+ * If lists must be divided into sublists (e.g. for iterating only on
+ * part of a list), one can simply give the list a name of the form
+ * 'outer_2_inner', where 'outer' is the global list name and 'inner'
+ * is the sub-list name. Iterators for the whole list should use the
+ * global list name ("outer"); iterators for only a sub-list should use
+ * the full sub-list name ("outer_2_inner").
+ *
+ * Here is an example of the sections generated from a global list
+ * named "drivers", two sub-lists named "i2c" and "pci", and iterators
+ * defined for the whole list and each sub-list:
+ *
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_1
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_2_i2c_1
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_2_i2c_2_first
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_2_i2c_2_first
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_2_i2c_2_second
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_2_i2c_2_third
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_2_i2c_3
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_2_pci_1
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_2_pci_2_first
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_2_pci_2_second
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_2_pci_2_third
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_2_pci_3
+ * %u_boot_list_2_drivers_3
