 The linker script has two SECTIONS that both define .start and .text.
 I'm not sure how that is supposed to work, the GNU ld manual doesn't
 tell about multiple statements for the same section.
 
 Swapping both SECTIONS seems to create a binary with the correct
 load addresses, same as merging both SECTIONS and this results in
 a kernel that boots.
