[PATCH -fixes] riscv: Fix relocatable kernels with early alternatives using -fno-pie

From: Alexandre Ghiti
Date: Fri May 26 2023 - 11:46:45 EST


Early alternatives are called with the mmu disabled, and then should not
access any global symbols through the GOT since it requires relocations,
relocations that we do before but *virtually*. So only use medany code
model for this early code.

Note that I'm not very happy with this fix, I think we need to put more
effort into "harmonizing" this very early code (ie before the mmu is
enabled) as it is spread between different locations and compiled
differently. I'll work on that later, but for now, this fix does what is
needed to work (from my testing at least). Any Tested-by on the Unmatched
and T-head boards is welcome!
