I'll apply this version on mainline and binutils-csl-arm-2005q1-branch.
ChangeLog:
* bfd/bfd-in.h (bfd_elf32_is_arm_mapping_symbol_name): Add prototype.
* bfd/bfd-in2.h: Regenerate.
* bfd/elf32-arm.c (elf32_arm_is_target_special_symbol): Rename call to
bfd_elf32_is_arm_mapping_symbol_name.
(elf32_arm_output_symbol_hook): Likewise.
(arm_elf_find_function): Likewise, and include STT_NOTYPE in test
for mapping symbols.
(is_arm_mapping_symbol_name): Function moved from here...
* bfd/cpu-arm.c (bfd_elf32_is_arm_mapping_symbol_name): ...to here,
renamed and made global.
* gas/config/tc-arm.c (mapping_state): Change documentation in
function comment to cross-reference spec instead. Change type of
mapping symbols to BSF_NO_TYPE.
(arm_adjust_symtab): Don't change type of mapping symbols here.
* gas/testsuite/gas/arm/mapping.d: Update expected output.
* ld/testsuite/ld-arm/arm-app-abs32.d: Likewise.
* ld/testsuite/ld-arm/arm-app.d: Likewise.
* ld/testsuite/ld-arm/mixed-app.d: Likewise.

/* This code is to handle mapping symbols as defined in the ARM ELF spec.
! (This text is taken from version B-02 of the spec):
!
! 4.4.7 Mapping and tagging symbols
!
! A section of an ARM ELF file can contain a mixture of ARM code,
! Thumb code, and data. There are inline transitions between code
! and data at literal pool boundaries. There can also be inline
! transitions between ARM code and Thumb code, for example in
! ARM-Thumb inter-working veneers. Linkers, machine-level
! debuggers, profiling tools, and disassembly tools need to map
! images accurately. For example, setting an ARM breakpoint on a
! Thumb location, or in a literal pool, can crash the program
! being debugged, ruining the debugging session.
!
! ARM ELF entities are mapped (see section 4.4.7.1 below) and
! tagged (see section 4.4.7.2 below) using local symbols (with
! binding STB_LOCAL). To assist consumers, mapping and tagging
! symbols should be collated first in the symbol table, before
! other symbols with binding STB_LOCAL.
!
! To allow properly collated mapping and tagging symbols to be
! skipped by consumers that have no interest in them, the first
! such symbol should have the name $m and its st_value field equal
! to the total number of mapping and tagging symbols (including
! the $m) in the symbol table.
!
! 4.4.7.1 Mapping symbols
!
! $a Labels the first byte of a sequence of ARM instructions.
! Its type is STT_FUNC.
!
! $d Labels the first byte of a sequence of data items.
! Its type is STT_OBJECT.
!
! $t Labels the first byte of a sequence of Thumb instructions.
! Its type is STT_FUNC.
!
! This list of mapping symbols may be extended in the future.
!
! Section-relative mapping symbols
!
! Mapping symbols defined in a section define a sequence of
! half-open address intervals that cover the address range of the
! section. Each interval starts at the address defined by a
! mapping symbol, and continues up to, but not including, the
! address defined by the next (in address order) mapping symbol or
! the end of the section. A corollary is that there must be a
! mapping symbol defined at the beginning of each section.
! Consumers can ignore the size of a section-relative mapping
! symbol. Producers can set it to 0.
!
! Absolute mapping symbols
!
! Because of the need to crystallize a Thumb address with the
! Thumb-bit set, absolute symbol of type STT_FUNC (symbols of type
! STT_FUNC defined in section SHN_ABS) need to be mapped with $a
! or $t.
!
! The extent of a mapping symbol defined in SHN_ABS is [st_value,
! st_value + st_size), or [st_value, st_value + 1) if st_size = 0,
! where [x, y) denotes the half-open address range from x,
! inclusive, to y, exclusive.
!
! In the absence of a mapping symbol, a consumer can interpret a
! function symbol with an odd value as the Thumb code address
! obtained by clearing the least significant bit of the
! value. This interpretation is deprecated, and it may not work in
! the future.
!
! Note - the Tagging symbols ($b, $f, $p $m) have been dropped from
! the EABI (which is still under development), so they are not
! implemented here. */
