objtool: Allow !PC relative relocations

Objtool doesn't currently much like per-cpu usage in alternatives:

arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o: warning: objtool: .altinstr_replacement+0xf: unsupported relocation in alternatives section
  f:   65 c7 04 25 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 80     movl   $0x80000000,%gs:0x0      13: R_X86_64_32S        __x86_call_depth

Since the R_X86_64_32S relocation is location invariant (it's
computation doesn't include P - the address of the location itself),
it can be trivially allowed.
