Fixes AArch64 part of PR40438
The current range extension thunk framework does not handle a relocation
relative to a STT_SECTION symbol with a non-zero addend, which may be
used by jumps/calls to local functions on some RELA targets (AArch64,
powerpc ELFv1, powerpc64 ELFv2, etc). See PR40438 and the following
code for examples:
// clang -target $target a.cc
// .text.cold may be placed in a separate output section.
// The distance between bar in .text.cold and foo in .text may be larger than 128MiB.
static void foo() {}
__attribute__((section(".text.cold"))) static int bar() { foo(); return
0; }
__attribute__((used)) static int dummy = bar();
This patch makes such thunks with addends work for AArch64. The target
independent part can be reused by PPC in the future.
On REL targets (ARM, MIPS), jumps/calls are not represented as
STT_SECTION + non-zero addend (see
MCELFObjectTargetWriter::needsRelocateWithSymbol), so they don't need
this feature, but we need to make sure this patch does not affect them.
