Subject: [PATCH 4/4] x86/boot: Check that there are no runtime relocations
Date:   Sun, 24 May 2020 17:28:16 -0400
Message-Id: <20200524212816.243139-5-nivedita@alum.mit.edu>
In-Reply-To: <CAKwvOd=qB+EoJwfAYUA9Hg7f9op4Q4W+TDnht8pLRG5bPX=29Q@mail.gmail.com>

Precedence: bulk

Add a linker script check that there are no runtime relocations, and
remove the old one that tries to check via looking for specially-named
sections in the object files.

Drop the tests for -fPIE compiler option and -pie linker option, as they
are available in all supported gcc and binutils versions (as well as
clang and lld).
