That was my point, I'm not sure that we can be sure that we can always
skip it in the future. E.g. if the elf2flt linker script decides to swap
the order of .got and .got.plt for some random reason in the future,
we would skip data that really should have been relocated.

So I think that it is better to keep it, even if it is a bit verbose.


Kind regards,
