Subject: [PATCH] RISC-V: Load modules within relative jump range of the kernel text.

Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@...alevy.com>
---

Note that this patch worked in my old modules patchset and seems to be
working now, but my kernel boot locks up on top of
riscv-for-linus-4.17-mw0 and I don't know if it's due to this patch or
something else that's changed in the mean time.
