--- Comment #7 from Wilco <wilco at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
We should return true for cannot_force_const_mem for CONST as that avoids
literals requiring relocations. If we check for CONST_INT/CONST_DOUBLE (and
CONST_VECTOR in the future) in aarch64_select_rtx_section then selecting .text
or .rodata should be  safe. Testing a patch.
