Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86_64: Reflect the relocatability of the kernel in the ELF header.
Currently because vmlinux does not reflect that the kernel is relocatable
we still have to support CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START. So this patch adds a small
c program to do what we cannot do with a linker script, set the elf header
type to ET_DYN.
This should remove the last obstacle to removing CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START
on x86_64.
