Subject: [patch] PR ld/11817 Revert part of compressed debug patch to fix ld breakage

The part of my compressed debug section patch that affected
bfd/dwarf2.c broke ld. This patch reverts that part. The original
patch was an attempt to fix a problem where it would apply relocations
before decompressing instead of the other way around. Since gnu ld
doesn't yet support compressed debug sections anyway, reverting this
patch will have no adverse effect there, but it will also leave
addr2line unable to handle relocatable object files with compressed
debug sections.
