m68k/mcf5329: linker script update (add KEEP() sections)

Description

This BSP's linker script does not include KEEP() directives and thus cannot have per-function and per-data element section support enabled.

The preferred solution is to convert the BSP to use a shared base linker script. The acceptable solution is to add the proper KEEP directives to the existing linker script(s).

Shared linker scripts for the arm, m68k, and sparc have the proper KEEP sections and can serve as examples.
