Thanks for building test. This error can be solved by following code:

movt,movw can only be used in ARMv6*, ARMv7 instruction set. But ldr can be used in ARMv4*, ARMv5T*, ARMv6*, ARMv7.
Maybe the performance is going to fall down by using ldr, but I think the influence of performance is very limited.
