I was really hoping that this sillyness would stop, but I guess expecting it to stop is asking too much... Is there really no other option?

Overall, this practice has stopped inside the company over 3 years ago and has not continued as far as I know. This patch is just taking the easy way out and forcing ARCH_QCOM to always do the shift.

Some qcom platforms need a specific text offset because the first 2MB of memory is reserved for shared memory. Let's just always shift the text segment up by 2MB when ARCH_QCOM is selected so that we don't have to specify the specific platforms that exhibit this problem in Kconfig.
