It was introduced to gcc by the ARM FDPIC series:
https://github.com/jcmvbkbc/gcc-xtensa/commit/11189793b6ef60645d5d1126d0bd9d0dd83e6583
This is the second change that I find made by the ARM FDPIC
series that appears to be not right for other FDPIC ports, first
being this change to the C++ unwinding code:
https://github.com/jcmvbkbc/gcc-xtensa/commit/67b0605494f32811364e25328d3522467aaf0638
