powerpc/64: Linker on-demand sfpr functions for modules
For final link, the powerpc64 linker generates fpr save/restore functions on-demand, placing them in the .sfpr section. Starting with binutils 2.25, these can be provided for non-final links with --save-restore-funcs. Use that where possible for module links. This saves about 200 bytes per module (~60kB) on powernv defconfig build. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
