Sascha:

Two small suggestions w.r.t. this patch:

 - I'd consider changing the code of relocate_to_current_adr() such
that AARCH64 specific codepaths are not taken on ARM32 (via IS_ENABLED
check or something similar)

 - I've always wanted to fix the original code to use Elf32_rel type
instead of magic hard-coded offsets, so depending on your
willingness/time-budget, maybe now would be a good time to do that as
well as use Elf64_rela for AARCH64?

Thanks,
Andrey Smirnov
