.data is for read/write data that isn't initially blank; the initial
values are placed at __data_load in Flash, and the startup copies data
starting from there to the area __data_start .. __data_end.

.ccmdata is going to be the same, but your code would have to tell the
compiler what linker section to use:

   X : Integer;
   pragma Linker_Section (X, ".ccmdata");
