This one was fixed by [1] e16c2983fba0f ("x86/purgatory: Change compiler
flags from -mcmodel=kernel to -mcmodel=large to fix kexec relocation
errors") from Steve Wahl, which in addition to changing mcmodel also
added back -ffreestanding (and -fno-zero-initialized-in-bss). It was
merged on the 12th. The stackleak one is a different undefined symbol
error.
