Hi everyone,

This patch is in context of Nick Cliftons request in thread:
  https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2023-October/130194.html
due to bug reported in:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2245296

For the time being the linker is not used in BPF infrastructure.
Considering that and without a proper way to validate the code, the
following patch is what I think is missing in order to add linker
support for the particular relocation.

Looking forward to your review.

Best regards,
Cupertino

This patch adds linker support to patch R_BPF_64_NODYLD32 relocations.
The implementation was based on comments and code in LLVM, as the GNU
toolchain does not uses this relocation type.
