Summary

Seems due some bug in llvm linker 'ALIGN(0x1000) + (. & (0x1000 - 1))'
trick produce kernel with wrong alignment:
[28] .data PROGBITS c0753d00 752d00 06f1d8 00 WA 0 0 64
That breaks boot on early stage with loaders unaware of ELF format.
In my case, kernel can't mach FDT methods on init of OFW.
DATA_SEGMENT_ALIGN special attribute that make job right:
[28] .data PROGBITS c0753000 753000 06f1d8 00 WA 0 0 64

It is wrong way to fix elfcopy bug.
Thanks to @strejda for pointing that.
