The ARM linker may emit veneers, i.e., trampolines, when ordinary direct relative branches cannot be used, e.g., for Thumb interworking or branch targets that are out of range. Usually, such veneers carry an absolute reference to the branch target, which is problematic for us, since these absolute references are not covered by annotations that are visible to GenFw in the PE/COFF conversion, and so these absolute references are not fixed up by the PE/COFF loader at runtime. So switch to all ARM GNU ld toolchains to position independent veneers. Contributed-under: TianoCore Contribution Agreement 1.1 Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org>
