The large file size is due to the large sh_offset of .text, which is to meet
the requirement of `--Ttext 0x60000000`.

A lot of -Ttext assumes the traditional GNU ld layout where there is a RX
segment but no R segment.

Before "[ELF] Map the ELF header at imageBase", we had a weird layout where the
ELF header and PT_PHDR is mapped high addresses. So the commit actually fixed a
problem.

  Type           Offset   VirtAddr           PhysAddr           FileSiz  MemSiz
  Flg Align
  PHDR           0x000040 0x000000005ffff040 0x000000005ffff040 0x0001f8
0x0001f8 R   0x8
  LOAD           0x000000 0x000000005ffff000 0x000000005ffff000 0x3bfd00
0x3bfd00 R E 0x1000
  LOAD           0x3bfd00 0x00000000603bfd00 0x00000000603bfd00 0x0008e0
0x0008e0 RW  0x1000

To get that behavior, you may need to add --image-base=0x5ffff000 beside -Ttext
0x60000000.

I have looked at my /usr/bin/qemu-x86_64-static, which maps the ELF header at
0x60000000, instead of 0x5ffff000.
So I believe the better fix is to remove -Ttext and add
--image-base=0x60000000.</pre>
