From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

Implicit absolute symbol references (e.g., taking the address of a
global variable) must be avoided from the C code that runs from the
early 1:1 mapping of the kernel, given that this is a practice that
violates assumptions on the part of the toolchain. I.e., absolute and
RIP-relative references are expected to produce the same result, and so
the compiler is free to choose either, and currently, the code assumes
that RIP-relative references are never emitted here.

So an explicit virtual-to-physical offset will be used instead to derive
the kernel virtual addresses of _text and _end, instead of simply taking
the address and having to rely on such implicit absolute symbol
references.

Currently, phys_base is used for this purpose, which is derived from the
kernel virtual address of _text, and this would lead to a circular
dependency. So instead, derive this virtual-to-physical offset in asm
code, using the kernel VA of common_startup_64 (which we already keep in
a global variable for other reasons), and pass it to the C startup code.
