[gold][aarch64]Patch to fix a tlsdesc gd-to-ie relaxation bug


Hi Cary,

When linking the following tlsdesc access sequence into an executable with -pie,

        adrp    x0, :tlsdesc:tls_gd
        ldr     x1, [x0, #:tlsdesc_lo12:tls_gd]
        add     x0, x0, :tlsdesc_lo12:tls_gd
        .tlsdesccall    tls_gd
        blr     x1
        mrs     x1, tpidr_el0
        add     x0, x1, x0
        ldr     w0, [x0]

current gold-aarch64 backend does tls-desc-gd-to-ie relaxation, into

       adrp    x0, 1000 <__FRAME_END__+0x720>
       ldr     x1, [x0,#4064]     ;; <=== the target register should be x0
       nop
       nop
        mrs     x1, tpidr_el0
        add     x0, x1, x0
        ldr     w0, [x0]

This code is wrong. Gold should change ldr target register into x0.

Here goes the patch to fix this bug.

Tested:
On aarch64 box,
$../binutils-gdb/configure --enable-plugins --disable-multilib
--disable-nls --enable-threads --enable-gold=default
--enable-targets=all

ok for trunk?

Thanks,
Jing
