Subject: [PATCH v6 3/3] riscv: Check relocations at compile time

Relocating kernel at runtime is done very early in the boot process, so
it is not convenient to check for relocations there and react in case a
relocation was not expected.

There exists a script in scripts/ that extracts the relocations from
vmlinux that is then used at postlink to check the relocations.
