Subject: [PATCH v6 3/6] LoongArch: Use model("extreme") attribute for per-CPU variables in module if CONFIG_AS_HAS_EXPLICIT_RELOCS

On LoongArch, The "address" of a per-CPU variable symbol is actually an
offset from $r21.  The value is nearing the loading address of main
kernel image, but far from the address of modules.  We need to tell the
compiler that a PC-relative addressing with 32-bit offset is not
sufficient for local per-CPU variables.

After some discussion with GCC maintainers, we implemented this
attribute to indicate that a PC-relative addressing with 64-bit offset
should be used.

This attribute should be available in GCC 13 release.  Some early GCC 13
snapshots may support -mexplicit-relocs but lack this attribute, we
simply reject them.
