4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: dann frazier <dann.frazier@canonical.com>

commit 67dfa1751ce71e629aad7c438e1678ad41054677 upstream.

GCC6 (and Linaro's 2015.12 snapshot of GCC5) has a new default that uses
adrp/ldr or adrp/add to address literal pools. When CONFIG_ARM64_ERRATUM_843419
is enabled, modules built with this toolchain fail to load:

  module libahci: unsupported RELA relocation: 275

This patch fixes the problem by passing '-mpc-relative-literal-loads'
to the compiler.
