[PATCH 3/5] ARM: force branch instructions to use long distance encoding

This fixes a linker error when the kernel image gets bigger than approx.
1 MiB.

This is done analogous to the change to head.S in commit

	a75e524 (ARM: 6504/1: Thumb-2: Fix long-distance conditional branches in head.S for Thumb-2.)
