I think it was in one of Mike automated build messages to the mailing list.
arch/blackfin/mach-common/entry.S: Assembler messages:
arch/blackfin/mach-common/entry.S:635: Error: pcrel too far BFD_RELOC_BFIN_10
sed -n '635p' arch/blackfin/mach-common/entry.S
if CC JUMP _sys_trace;
A fix would also be to switch the assembly to a local (pcrel11m2: -1024 to
+1022 bytes)
label - and just have that do a JUMP.L from there.
