The "Thumb bit" of a symbol is only really meaningful for function symbols (STT_FUNC). However, sometimes a branch is relocated against a non-function symbol; for example, PC-relative branches to anonymous assembler local symbols are typically fixed up against the start-of-section symbol, which is not a function symbol. Some inline assembler generates references of this type, such as fixup code generated by macros in <asm/uaccess.h>. The existing relocation code for R_ARM_THM_CALL/R_ARM_THM_JUMP24 interprets this case as an error, because the target symbol appears to be an ARM symbol; but this is really not the case, since the target symbol is just a base in these cases. The addend defines the precise offset to the target location, but since the addend is encoded in a non-interworking Thumb branch instruction, there is no explicit Thumb bit in the addend. Because these instructions never interwork, the implied Thumb bit in the addend is 1, and the destination is Thumb by definition. This patch removes the extraneous Thumb bit check for non-function symbols, enabling modules containing the affected relocation types to be loaded. No modification to the actual relocation code is required, since this code does not take bit[0] of the location->destination offset into account in any case. Function symbols are always checked for interworking conflicts, as before.
