riscv: kexec: Remove -fPIE for PURGATORY_CFLAGS
With CONFIG_RELOCATABLE enabled, KBUILD_CFLAGS had a -fPIE option and then the purgatory/string.o was built to reference _ctype symbol via R_RISCV_GOT_HI20 relocations which can't be handled by purgatory. As a consequence, the kernel failed kexec_load_file() with: [ 880.386562] kexec_image: The entry point of kernel at 0x80200000 [ 880.388650] kexec_image: Unknown rela relocation: 20 [ 880.389173] kexec_image: Error loading purgatory ret=-8 So remove the -fPIE option for PURGATORY_CFLAGS to generate R_RISCV_PCREL_HI20 relocations type making puragtory work as it was.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
