This Thumb PLT support is for very restricted use cases.
The lack of a MMU implies no sharing for the text segment used by two processes:
* Two processes running the same executable must have different data segments. The System V dynamic linking model requires a constant distance between the text segment and the data segment. Corollary: the text segment cannot be shared.
* Similarly, a shared object's text segment cannot be shared by two processes running different executables.
Perhaps the use case has a stronger requirement: no two executables (nanoapps?) are running at the same time.
It seems useful to update the description to clarify the case. The code generally looks good.
