powerpc: Process dynamic relocations for kernel
The following patch implements the dynamic relocation processing for PPC32 kernel. relocate() accepts the target virtual address and relocates the kernel image to the same. Currently the following relocation types are handled : R_PPC_RELATIVE R_PPC_ADDR16_LO R_PPC_ADDR16_HI R_PPC_ADDR16_HA The last 3 relocations in the above list depends on value of Symbol indexed whose index is encoded in the Relocation entry. Hence we need the Symbol Table for processing such relocations. Note: The GNU ld for ppc32 produces buggy relocations for relocation types that depend on symbols. The value of the symbols with STB_LOCAL scope should be assumed to be zero. - Alan Modra Signed-off-by: NSuzuki K.
