Title:
  booting linux-generic-lpae armhf kernel under qemu results in
  relocation out of range, and thus no modules can be loaded

Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux source package in Groovy:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Groovy armhf LPAE kernel fails to load kmods (and thus fail to boot).

  [Fix]

  Enable CONFIG_ARM_MODULE_PLTS for armhf

  [Regression potential]

  Quoting the arch/arm/Kconfig:

  "This [option] allows modules to be allocated in the generic
   vmalloc area after the dedicated module memory area has been
   exhausted. The modules will use slightly more memory, but after
   rounding up to page size, the actual memory footprint is usually
   the same.

   Disabling this is usually safe for small single-platform
   configurations.
  "

  Are we miss-building the kernel and/or modules? Or am I miss-launching
  the VM?
