I submitted the following:

(sid)335:tbm@swarm: ~] gcc-4.2 -c -march=mips32r2 -O2 pr33755.c
(sid)336:tbm@swarm: ~] ld -m elf32ltsmip -r pr33755.o
ld: pr33755.o: Can't find matching LO16 reloc against `$LC0' for R_MIPS_GOT16 at 0x521490 in section `.text'
(sid)337:tbm@swarm: ~] cat pr33755.c
struct mtd_blktrans_ops
{
  int (*readsect) (void);
  int exiting;
};
static void do_blktrans_request (struct mtd_blktrans_ops *tr, long flags)
{
  switch (flags & 1)
    {
    case 0:
      if (tr->readsect ())
        return;
    case 1:
      return;
    default:
      printk ("foo\n");
    }
}
mtd_blktrans_thread (struct mtd_blktrans_ops *tr)
{
  long flags;
  while (!tr->exiting)
      do_blktrans_request (tr, flags);
}
