Subject: [PATCH v5 11/32] ARM: module: implement support for PC-relative group relocations

Add support for the R_ARM_ALU_PC_Gn_NC and R_ARM_LDR_PC_G2 group
relocations [0] so we can use them in modules. These will be used to
load the current task pointer from a global variable without having to
rely on a literal pool entry to carry the address of this variable,
which may have a significant negative impact on cache utilization for
variables that are used often and in many different places, as each
occurrence will result in a literal pool entry and therefore a line in
the D-cache.

+/*
+ * This implements the partitioning algorithm for group relocations as
+ * documented in the ARM AArch32 ELF psABI (IHI 0044).
+ *
+ * A single PC-relative symbol reference is divided in up to 3 add or subtract
+ * operations, where the final one could be incorporated into a load/store
+ * instruction with immediate offset. E.g.,
+ *
+ *   ADD	Rd, PC, #...		or	ADD	Rd, PC, #...
+ *   ADD	Rd, Rd, #...			ADD	Rd, Rd, #...
+ *   LDR	Rd, [Rd, #...]			ADD	Rd, Rd, #...
+ *
+ * The latter has a guaranteed range of only 16 MiB (3x8 == 24 bits), so it is
+ * of limited use in the kernel. However, the ADD/ADD/LDR combo has a range of
+ * -/+ 256 MiB, (2x8 + 12 == 28 bits), which means it has sufficient range for
+ * any in-kernel symbol reference (unless module PLTs are being used).
+ *
+ * The main advantage of this approach over the typical pattern using a literal
+ * load is that literal loads may miss in the D-cache, and generally lead to
+ * lower cache efficiency for variables that are referenced often from many
+ * different places in the code.
