[PATCH v1 2/3] riscv/kexec: handle R_RISCV_ADD16 and R_RISCV_SUB16 relocation types

From: Petr Tesarik <petr.tesarik.ext at huawei.com>

16-bit add and subtract relocation types are used by the purgatory code
when the kernel is built with CONFIG_RISCV_ALTERNATIVES. If they are not
handled, kexec_file_load(2) fails with:

 Unknown rela relocation: 34
 kexec_image: Error loading purgatory ret=-8

or later with:

 Unknown rela relocation: 38
 kexec_image: Error loading purgatory ret=-8

Note that alternatives are not yet handled in purgatory code; this patch
merely allows to load it.

Fixes: 838b3e28488f ("RISC-V: Load purgatory in kexec_file")
