    Even though existing implementation works fine in preparation to
    submission of ARCv2 architecture we need this change.
    
    In case of ARCv2 interrupt vector table consists of just addresses
    of corresponding handlers. And if those addresses will be in .text
    section then assembler will encode them as everything in .text section
    as middle-endian and then on real execution CPU will read swapped
    addresses and will jump into the wild.
    
    Once introduced new section is situated so .text section remains the
    first which allows us to use common linker option for linking everything
    to a specified CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE.
