Subject[PATCH v6 2/6] LoongArch: Adjust CFLAGS for CONFIG_AS_HAS_EXPLICIT_RELOCS
Date
If explicit relocation hints is used by the toolchain, -Wa,-mla-*
options will be useless for C code. Only use them for
!CONFIG_AS_HAS_EXPLICIT_RELOCS.

Replace "la" with "la.pcrel" in head.S to keep the semantic consistent
with new and old toolchains for the low level startup code.

Remove -fplt because it's the default for all known LoongArch C
compilers.

The behavior with different assemblers and compilers are summarized in
the following table:

AS has CC has
explicit reloc explicit reloc Behavior
==============================================================
No No Use la.* macros.
No change from Linux 6.0.
--------------------------------------------------------------
No Yes Disable explicit reloc.
No change from Linux 6.0.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Yes No Not supported.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Yes Yes Use explicit relocs.
No -Wa,-mla* options.
==============================================================
