Enable OpenSBI to support position independent execution. Because the position independent code will cause an additional GOT reference when accessing the global variables, it will reduce performance a bit. Therefore, the position independent execution is disabled by default. Users can through specifying "FW_PIC=y" on the make command to enable this feature. In theory, after enabling position-independent execution, the OpenSBI can run at arbitrary address with appropriate alignment. Therefore, the original relocation mechanism will be skipped. In other words, OpenSBI will directly run at the load address without any code movement. Signed-off-by: Vincent Chen <vincent.chen@sifive.com> Reviewed-by: Anup Patel <anup.patel@wdc.com>
