The stage3 linker script places .sb.trailer so that it must end at
COMMAND_LINE_EXTRA. The current script derives the start address from
SIZEOF(.sb.trailer) before the section is emitted:
. = COMMAND_LINE_EXTRA - SIZEOF(.sb.trailer);
With binutils older than 2.39 before commit 648f6099d4dc ("-z relro
relaxation and ld script SIZEOF") this can result in .sb.trailer being
placed at COMMAND_LINE_EXTRA instead, moving the trailer into the
following area and breaking the expected layout.
The trailer has a fixed size, so use an explicit constant for the
placement calculation and keep the ASSERT to verify the final section
size. This makes the placement deterministic again.
