backends: aarch64 can have _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ point anywhere in .got.
When building with relro aarch64 splits .got in a writable and read-only part. _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ points to the first writable symbol, not the start of .got. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1201778 Signed-off-by: Mark Wielaard <mjw@redhat.com>
