Subject: [PATCH 50/52] module: handle ppc64 relocating kcrctabs when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y

From: Rusty Russell <rusty@...tcorp.com.au>

commit d4703aefdbc8f9f347f6dcefcddd791294314eb7 upstream.

powerpc applies relocations to the kcrctab.  They're absolute symbols,
but it's not completely unreasonable: other archs may too, but the
relocation is often 0.
