Splitting the previous serie in two. This part contains assembly code
changes required for PIE but without any direct dependencies with the
rest of the patchset.

Changes:
 - patch v7 (assembly):
   - Split patchset and reorder changes.
 - patch v6:
   - Rebase on latest changes in jump tables and crypto.
   - Fix wording on couple commits.
   - Revisit checkpatch warnings.
   - Moving to @chromium.org.
 - patch v5:
   - Adapt new crypto modules for PIE.
   - Improve per-cpu commit message.
   - Fix xen 32-bit build error with .quad.
   - Remove extra code for ftrace.
 - patch v4:
   - Simplify early boot by removing global variables.
   - Modify the mcount location script for __mcount_loc intead of the address
     read in the ftrace implementation.
   - Edit commit description to explain better where the kernel can be located.
   - Streamlined the testing done on each patch proposal. Always testing
     hibernation, suspend, ftrace and kprobe to ensure no regressions.
 - patch v3:
   - Update on message to describe longer term PIE goal.
   - Minor change on ftrace if condition.
   - Changed code using xchgq.
 - patch v2:
   - Adapt patch to work post KPTI and compiler changes
   - Redo all performance testing with latest configs and compilers
   - Simplify mov macro on PIE (MOVABS now)
   - Reduce GOT footprint
 - patch v1:
   - Simplify ftrace implementation.
   - Use gcc mstack-protector-guard-reg=%gs with PIE when possible.
 - rfc v3:
   - Use --emit-relocs instead of -pie to reduce dynamic relocation space on
     mapped memory. It also simplifies the relocation process.
   - Move the start the module section next to the kernel. Remove the need for
     -mcmodel=large on modules. Extends module space from 1 to 2G maximum.
   - Support for XEN PVH as 32-bit relocations can be ignored with
     --emit-relocs.
   - Support for GOT relocations previously done automatically with -pie.
   - Remove need for dynamic PLT in modules.
   - Support dymamic GOT for modules.
 - rfc v2:
   - Add support for global stack cookie while compiler default to fs without
     mcmodel=kernel
   - Change patch 7 to correctly jump out of the identity mapping on kexec load
     preserve.

These patches make some of the changes necessary to build the kernel as
Position Independent Executable (PIE) on x86_64. Another patchset will
add the PIE option and larger architecture changes.

The patches:
 - 1-2, 4-12: Change in assembly code to be PIE compliant.
 - 3: Add a new _ASM_MOVABS macro to fetch a symbol address generically.
