    Subject[PATCH v2 3/4] x86/boot: Remove runtime relocations from head_{32,64}.S
    Date
    The BFD linker generates runtime relocations for z_input_len and
    z_output_len, even though they are absolute symbols.

    This is fixed for binutils-2.35 [1]. Work around this for earlier
    versions by defining two variables input_len and output_len in addition
    to the symbols, and use them via position-independent references.

    This eliminates the last two runtime relocations in the head code and
    allows us to drop the -z noreloc-overflow flag to the linker.
