Subject: powerpc: Fix CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=n build
From: Anton Blanchard <[email protected]>
commit 11ee7e99f35ecb15f59b21da6a82d96d2cd3fcc8 upstream.
If we build a kernel with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=n,
the kernel fails when we run at a non zero offset. It turns out
we were incorrectly wrapping some of the relocatable kernel code
with CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP.
