Hi Jisheng,

This patch breaks loading the KVM module for me. I got "kvm: Unknown
relocation type 34". My guess is that these 2 byte fields are inspiring
the compiler to emit 16-bit relocation types. The patch below fixes
things for me. If you agree with fixing it this way, rather than
changing something in alternatives, like not using 2 byte fields,
then please pick the below patch up in your series.

Thanks,
drew

Subject: [PATCH] riscv: module: Add ADD16 and SUB16 rela types
Content-type: text/plain

To prepare for 16-bit relocation types to be emitted in alternatives
add support for ADD16 and SUB16.
