Fix problem where erratum stubs are not always applied.
I checked over the results of applying --fix-cortex-a53-843419 to a very large program (gitit) with two stub tables and thousands of erratum fixes. I noticed that all the erratum_stubs were being created but about 1/3 of them were being skipped over by fix_errata_and_relocate_erratum_stubs(). By skipped over I mean no branch relocation or adrp -> adr transformation was applied to the erratum address, leaving the erratum_stub unreachable, and with a branch with a 0 immediate. The root cause of the skipped over erratum_stubs is Erratum_stub::invalidate_erratum_stub() that is used to set relobj_ to NULL when an erratum_stub has been processed. Unfortunately relobj_ is used in operator<() so altering relobj makes the results from erratum_stubs_.lower_bound() as used in find_erratum_stubs_for_input_section() unreliable. 2017-11-30 Peter Smith <peter.smith@linaro.org> Cary Coutant <ccoutant@gmail.com> gold/ PR gold/20765 * aarch64.cc (Erratum_stub::invalidate_erratum_stub): Use erratum_insn_ instead of relobj_ to invalidate the stub. (Erratum_stub::is_invalidated_erratum_stub): Likewise.
