For brcond, we always apply the relocation before we ever try to execute the TB.

For goto_tb, we expect the contents of the patch to contain valid insns from the
start.  We never apply a "null" relocation there.  Perhaps this should be considerd
a bug in cpu_gen_code, but that's where we are.

I'm frankly surprised this ever works on ARM...
