[RFC PATCH 0/9] powerpc/64: Build with PC-Relative addressing

[Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com>]

This is a more complete change than my earlier hack. Namely fixed the
boot code so it's more unified rather than adding a special case for
Book3S+PCREL. Lots of bug fixes, and adding some of the ftrace and BPF
trampoline/stubs. And added module support, which might be the most
interesting bit.

This won't see a lot of real use until POWER10 is the oldest supported
CPU for distros, but being as we're quite a unique user of toolchain I'd
like to start ironing things out earlier rather than later. I'm making a
list of observations here, https://github.com/linuxppc/issues/issues/455
and will take them to toolchan developers after the kernel work is a bit
further along.

Thanks,
Nick
