Build files needed for relocation

This patch builds vmlinux file with relocation sections and contents so
that relocs user space program can extract the required relocation
offsets. This packs final relocatable vmlinux kernel as following:
earlier part of relocation apply code, vmlinux, rest of relocation apply
code.
