[PATCH 12/22] objtool: Get rid of reloc->list

From: Josh Poimboeuf
Date: Tue May 30 2023 - 13:22:28 EST


Now that all relocs are allocated in an array, the linked list is no
longer needed.

With allyesconfig + CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO:

- Before: peak heap memory consumption: 49.02G
- After: peak heap memory consumption: 45.56G
