There are a few cases in the nVHE code where we take the absolute address of a symbol via a literal pool entry, and subsequently translate it to another address space (PA, kimg VA, kernel linear VA, etc). Originally, this literal was needed because we relied on a different translation for absolute references, but this is no longer the case, so we can simply use relative addressing instead. This removes a couple of RELA entries pointing into the .text segment.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
