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.

  /* 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.  */
