Szabolcs Nagy a68ba2f3cd [AARCH64] Rewrite elf_machine_load_address using _DYNAMIC symbol
This patch rewrites aarch64 elf_machine_load_address to use special _DYNAMIC
symbol instead of _dl_start.

The static address of _DYNAMIC symbol is stored in the first GOT entry.
Here is the change which makes this solution work (part of binutils 2.24):
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2013-06/msg00248.html

i386, x86_64 targets use the same method to do this as well.

The original implementation relies on a trick that R_AARCH64_ABS32 relocation
being resolved at link time and the static address fits in the 32bits.
However, in LP64, normally, the address is defined to be 64 bit.

Here is the C version one which should be portable in all cases.

	* sysdeps/aarch64/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_load_address): Use
	_DYNAMIC symbol to calculate load address.
