While this is the case of RELACOUNT, RELASZ appears to behave as
expected. For instance, on a random vmlinux file (with patch 3/3
applied), I get

Dynamic Section:
  HASH                 0xc000000000cf5a40
  STRTAB               0xc000000000cf4d80
  SYMTAB               0xc000000000cf3e98
  STRSZ                0x0000000000000bae
  SYMENT               0x0000000000000018
  DEBUG                0x0000000000000000
  RELA                 0xc000000000cf5ee8
  RELASZ               0x00000000003308b8
  RELAENT              0x0000000000000018
  TEXTREL              0x0000000000000000
  FLAGS_1              0x0000000008000000
  RELACOUNT            0x0000000000020444

where RELACOUNT is the number of just the R_PPC64_RELATIVE
relocations, whereas RELASZ covers all of them (which is why RELASZ /
RELAENT != RELACOUNT)

So if preferred, I can respin this patch to retrieve RELASZ from the
dynamic section rather than the end of the .rela section from the
linker script, which would reduce the delta of this patch somewhat.
