[PATCH v3 2/2] ld testsuite: Update "__patchable_function_entries section [2-6]" test cases
This patch addresses test case failures in the ld test suite resulting from the change in the default H8 architecture to H8/300H. The H8/300H variant uses 32-bit addresses in its default advanced mode, differing from the H8/300’s 16-bit addresses, which caused existing test cases related to the __patchable_function_entries section to fail. The patch updates these tests to align with the new addressing behavior.
