For the record, GNU ld changed to 64k max page size in 2014
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=7572ca8989ead4c3425a1500bc241eaaeffa2c89
"[RFC] ld/ARM: Increase maximum page size to 64kB"
Android driver forced 4k page size in AArch64 (D55029) and ARM (D77746).
A binary linked with max-page-size=4096 does not run on a system with a
higher page size configured. There are some systems out there that do
this and it leads to the binary getting `Killed!` by the kernel.
In the non-linker-script cases, when linked with -z noseparate-code
(default), the max-page-size increase should not cause any size
difference. There may be some VMA usage differences, though.

With this patch lld recognizes ARM SBREL relocations.
R_ARM*_MOVW_BREL relocations are not tested because they are not used.

Port the D64906 technique to ARM. It deletes 3 alignments at
PT_LOAD boundaries for the default case: the size of an arm binary
decreases by at most 12kb.

This improves readability and the behavior is consistent with GNU objdump.

The TinyPtrVector of const Thunk<ELFT>* in InputSections.h can cause
build failures on certain compiler/library combinations when Thunk<ELFT>
is not a complete type or is an abstract class. Fixed by making Thunk<ELFT>
non Abstract.

Generalise the Mips LA25 Thunk code and implement ARM and Thumb
interworking Thunks.
- Introduce a new module Thunks.cpp to store the Target Specific Thunk
implementations.
- DefinedRegular and Shared have a ThunkData field to record Thunk.
- A Target can have more than one type of Thunk.
- Support PC-relative calls to Thunks.
- Support Thunks to PLT entries.
- Existing Mips LA25 Thunk code integrated.
- Support for ARMv7A interworking Thunks.
Limitations:
- Only one Thunk per SymbolBody, this is sufficient for all currently
implemented Thunks.
- ARM thunks assume presence of V6T2 MOVT and MOVW instructions.

Add support for the R_ARM_THM relocations used in the objects present
in arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc. These are:
R_ARM_THM_CALL
R_ARM_THM_JUMP11
R_ARM_THM_JUMP19
R_ARM_THM_JUMP24
R_ARM_THM_MOVT_ABS
R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC
Interworking between ARM and Thumb is partially supported with BLX.
The R_ARM_CALL relocation for ARM instructions and R_ARM_THM_CALL
relocation for Thumb instructions will write out a BL or BLX depending
on the state of the Target.
Assumptions:
- Availability of BLX and extended range of Thumb 4-byte Branch
instructions.
- In relocateOne if (Val & 0x1) == 1 target is Thumb, 0 is ARM.
This will hold for objects that comply with the ABI for the
ARM architecture.
This is sufficient for hello world to work with a recent
arm-linux-gnueabihf distribution.
Limitations:
No interworking for R_ARM_JUMP24, R_ARM_THM_JUMP24, R_ARM_THM_JUMP19
and the deprecated R_ARM_PLT32 and R_ARM_PC24 instructions as these
cannot be written out as a BLX and need a state change thunk.
No range extension thunks. The R_ARM_JUMP24 and R_ARM_THM_CALL have a
range of 16Mb

Add support for an ARM Target and the initial set of relocations
and PLT entries that are necessary for an ARM only hello world to
link. This has been tested against an ARM only sysroot from the
4.2.0 CodeSourcery Lite release.
Tests have been added to test/ELF for the support that has been
implemented.
Main limitations:
- No Thumb support
- Relocations incomplete
- No C++ exceptions support
- No TLS support
- No range extension or interworking veneer (thunk) support
- No Build Attribute support
- No Big-endian support
The deprecated relocations R_ARM_PLT32 and R_ARM_PC24 have been
implemented as these are used by the 4.2.0 CodeSourcery Lite release.
