When compling with Clang on LoongArch, there exists unreachable entry of
rodata which points to a position after the function return instruction,
this is generated by compiler to fill the non-existent switch case, just
skip the entry when parsing the relocation section of rodata.
This is preparation for later patch on LoongArch, there is no effect for
the other archs with this patch.

Are you sure this is specific to loongarch?
