Subject: [PATCH v2 11/11] MIPS: KASLR: Print relocation Information on boot
When debugging a relocated kernel, the addresses of the relocated
symbols and the offset applied is essential information. If the kernel
is compiled with debugging information, then print this information
during bootup using the same function as the panic notifer.
