Ohh, I think that we shouldn't remove it now, as I have figure out the PCREL patch, and I am still waiting your response of PCREL support of Binutils. My plan is, once Binutils is ready, I can submit my GCC patch. I don't want to rewrite them. And then, we can remove all no_explicit_relocs support. I mean that I plan to remove all `TARGET_EXPLICIT_RELOCS` macro related code in mips.cc/mips.h/mips.md etc.
