[PATCH v4 5/9] powerpc: Generalize elf64_apply_relocate_add.

When apply_relocate_add is called, modules are already loaded at their
final location in memory so Elf64_Shdr.sh_addr can be used for accessing
the section contents as well as the base address for relocations.
This is not the case for kexec's purgatory, because it will only be
copied to its final location right before being executed. Therefore,
it needs to be relocated while it is still in a temporary buffer. In
this case, Elf64_Shdr.sh_addr can't be used to access the sections'
contents.
This patch allows elf64_apply_relocate_add to be used when the ELF
binary is not yet at its final location by adding an addr_base argument
to specify the address at which the section will be loaded, and rela,
loc_base and syms_base to point to the sections' contents.
