[PATCH v4 4/5] LoongArch: Add support for kernel relocation
From: Youling Tang
Date: Fri Feb 10 2023 - 03:48:24 EST
This config allows to compile kernel as PIE and to relocate it at
any virtual address at runtime: this paves the way to KASLR.
Runtime relocation is possible since relocation metadata are embedded
into the kernel.
