Commit 0e0ed6406e61 ("powerpc/modules: Module CRC relocation fix causes perf issues") fixed an issue with relocatable PIE kernels in a way that essentially reintroduced the issue again for 32-bit builds.
Since the chosen approach does is not applicable to 32-bit, fix the issue by updating the runtime relocation routine to ignore the load offset for the interval [__start___kcrctab, __stop___kcrctab_gpl_future), which is where the CRCs reside. This ensures that the values of the CRC pseudo-symbols are no longer made dependent on the runtime load offset.
