* RELOC_HIDE was originally added by 6007b903dfe5f1d13e0c711ac2894bdd4a61b1ad
* (lmo) rsp. 8431fd094d625b94d364fe393076ccef88e6ce18 (kernel.org). The
* discussion can be found in lkml posting
* <a2ebde260608230500o3407b108hc03debb9da6e62c@mail.gmail.com> which is
* archived at http://lists.linuxcoding.com/kernel/2006-q3/msg17360.html
*
* It is unclear if the misscompilations mentioned in
* http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/8/8/138 also affect MIPS so we keep this one
* until GCC 3.x has been retired before we can apply
