3.16.59-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Markus Trippelsdorf <mar...@trippelsdorf.de>

commit 7ebb916782949621ff6819acf373a06902df7679 upstream.

gcc-7 warns:

In file included from arch/x86/tools/relocs_64.c:17:0:
arch/x86/tools/relocs.c: In function ‘process_64’:
arch/x86/tools/relocs.c:953:2: warning: argument 1 null where non-null expected 
[-Wnonnull]
  qsort(r->offset, r->count, sizeof(r->offset[0]), cmp_relocs);
  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from arch/x86/tools/relocs.h:6:0,
                 from arch/x86/tools/relocs_64.c:1:
/usr/include/stdlib.h:741:13: note: in a call to function ‘qsort’ declared here
 extern void qsort

This happens because relocs16 is not used for ELF_BITS == 64,
so there is no point in trying to sort it.

Make the sort_relocs(&relocs16) call 32bit only.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16: Also make sort_relocs(&relocs64) conditional,
 which was done upstream in commit 6d24c5f72dfb "x86-64: Handle PC-relative
 relocations on per-CPU data".]
