   # HEAD: f36e7495dd3990d6848e6d6703c78f1f17a97538 x86/tools/relocs: Fix big section header tables

Misc updates:

 - Add link flag quirk to solve LLVM linker bug that removes local 
   relocations, causing KASLR boot failures.

 - Update the defconfigs to remove archaic partition table support

 - Fix kernel growing pains: we had a bug in relocs.c handling section 
   header table entries count larger than 0xff00 (~65k), which can happen 
   with the -ffunction-sections flag, causing a build failure with a 
   cryptic error message. Add support for detecting the limit and using 
   the ELF protocol that extends the sections table via ->sh_size. The 
   new limit is now much larger - over a billion entries?

 Thanks,

	Ingo
