Subject: [PATCH v3] arm64: errata: Add -mpc-relative-literal-loads to build flags

From: [email-masked] (dann frazier)
Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2016 13:11:24 -0700

GCC6 (and Linaro's 2015.12 snapshot of GCC5) has a new default that uses
adrp/ldr or adrp/add to address literal pools. When CONFIG_ARM64_ERRATUM_843419
is enabled, modules built with this toolchain fail to load:

  [ 2.156817] module libahci: unsupported RELA relocation: 275

v2: Unconditionally use flag for both kernel and modules, as Ard notes we have
no requirement for supporting literals >1 MB away.

v3: Drop reference to -mfix-cortex-a53-843419.
