[PATCH] x86/tools/relocs: Add _etext and __end_of_kernel_reserve to S_REL
From: Arvind Sankar
Date: Fri Jan 10 2020 - 15:23:54 EST
Pre-2.23 binutils makes symbols defined outside sections absolute, so
these two symbols break the build on old linkers.
Fixes: b907693883fd ("x86/vmlinux: Actually use _etext for the end of the text segment")
Fixes: c603a309cc75 ("x86/mm: Identify the end of the kernel area to be reserved")
