Yonghong Song fc8c262e0e bpf, docs: Add llvm_reloc.rst to explain llvm bpf relocations
LLVM upstream commit https://reviews.llvm.org/D102712 made some changes
to bpf relocations to make them llvm linker lld friendly. The scope of
existing relocations R_BPF_64_{64,32} is narrowed and new relocations
R_BPF_64_{ABS32,ABS64,NODYLD32} are introduced.

Let us add some documentation about llvm bpf relocations so people can
understand how to resolve them properly in their respective tools.

README

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.
