Subject: [PATCH 19/30] ARM: kernel: use PC-relative symbol references in MMU switch code
To prepare for adding support for KASLR, which relocates all absolute
symbol references at runtime after the caches have been enabled,
update the MMU switch code to avoid using absolute symbol references
where possible. This ensures these quantities are invariant under
runtime relocation.
