[ Upstream commit 091bf313f8a852a7f30c3a8dcef569edfd06f5dc ]

In the most cases, the entry size of rodata is 8 bytes because the
relocation type is 64 bit. There are also 32 bit relocation types,
the entry size of rodata should be 4 bytes in this case.

Add an arch-specific function arch_reloc_size() to assign the entry
size of rodata for x86, powerpc and LoongArch.

In preparation to changing struct instruction around a bit, avoid
passing it's members by pointer and instead pass the whole thing.

A cleanup in it's own right too.

Provide an implementation for arch_pc_relative_reloc(). It is needed to
pass the build once 61c6065ef7ec ("objtool: Allow !PC relative
relocations") is merged.

This patch adds [stub] implementations for required functions, inorder
to enable objtool build on powerpc.

[Christophe Leroy: powerpc: Add missing asm/asm.h for objtool,
Use local variables for type and imm in arch_decode_instruction(),
Adapt len for prefixed instructions.]
