The relocation feature relies on the ld option "-z noreloc-overflow" which is
only available for binutils >= 2.27, while on Ubuntu 16.04 or older the default
version of binutils is 2.26.
This patch wraps the relocation code with a configurable macro and make it
undefined by default to avoid default build failures.
NOTE: This is just a hotfix. The code dropped with undefined CONFIG_RELOC needs
to be reviewed by the original author of this feature. Checks to the binutils
version will also follow up.

- Trampoline code doesn't have the same relocation delta with HV,
Need to manually patch them when referenced from HV
- replace all references to CONFIG_RAM_START with the actual HV load
address

For UEFI boot, currently EFI application loads hypervisor to the
hard coded COMNFIG_RAM_START, which may cause it fail to boot if
this address is not available in the target.
This patch series resolve this issue by allocating memory for hypervisor
at run time, and do relocation fixup if the allocated address is
different from the base address that the hypervisor is built.
The summary of the first patch [1/6] in this series:
In x86_64 ELF, .rela sections hold information of symbols which must be
relocated before being referenced.
This patch adds code to fixup .rela sections with the relocated offset,
also, it provides utilities to assist address fixup
