[PATCH v3 4/5] LoongArch: Add support for kernel relocation
From: Xi Ruoyao
Date: Wed Feb 08 2023 - 12:17:11 EST
From: Youling Tang <tangyouling@xxxxxxxxxxx>
arch/loongarch/kernel/relocate.c contains the functions necessary to
relocate the kernel elsewhere in memory.
The kernel makes a copy of itself at the new address. It uses the
relocation table inserted by the relocs tool to fix symbol references
within the new image.
If copy/relocation is successful then the entry point of the new kernel
is returned, otherwise fall back to starting the kernel in place.
