riscv: Check relocations at compile time
Relocating kernel at runtime is done very early in the boot process, so it is not convenient to check for relocations there and react in case a relocation was not expected. There exists a script in scripts/ that extracts the relocations from vmlinux that is then used at postlink to check the relocations.
