x86/boot/compressed/64: Set up GOT for paging_prepare() and cleanup_trampoline()
Eric and Hugh have reported instant reboot due to my recent changes in decompression code. The root cause is that I didn't realize that we need to adjust GOT to be able to run C code that early. The problem is only visible with an older toolchain. Binutils >= 2.24 is able to eliminate GOT references by replacing them with RIP-relative address loads: https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commitdiff;h=80d873266dec We need to adjust GOT two times: - before calling paging_prepare() using the initial load address - before calling C code from the relocated kernel Reported-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Reported-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
