H A DMakefilediff 279b991b24d2439fbe9d2f093988b9c8aed2603d Thu Mar 31 11:05:36 CEST 2016 Matt Redfearn <matt.redfearn@imgtec.com> MIPS: Kernel: Add relocate.c

arch/mips/kernel/relocate.c contains the functions necessary to relocate
the kernel elsewhere in memory

The kernel makes a copy of itself at the new address. It uses the
relocation table inserted by the relocs tool to fix symbol references
within the new image.

If copy/relocation is sucessful then the entry point of the new kernel
is returned, otherwise fall back to starting the kernel in place.
