-    RISC-V: Add and document the "-mno-relax" option
-
-    RISC-V relies on aggressive linker relaxation to get good code size.  As
-    a result no text symbol addresses can be known until link time, which
-    means that alignment must be handled during the link.  This alignment
-    pass is essentially just another linker relaxation, so this has the
-    unfortunate side effect that linker relaxation is required for
-    correctness on many RISC-V targets.
-
-    The RISC-V assembler has supported an ".option norelax" for a long time
-    because there are situations in which linker relaxation is a bad idea --
-    the canonical example is when trying to materialize the initial value of
-    the global pointer into a register, which would otherwise be relaxed to
-    a NOP.  We've been relying on users who want to disable relaxation for
-    an entire link to pass "-Wl,--no-relax", but that still relies on the
-    linker relaxing R_RISCV_ALIGN to handle alignment despite it not being
-    strictly necessary.
-
-    This patch adds a GCC option, "-mno-relax", that disable linker
-    relaxation by adding ".option norelax" to the top of every generated
-    assembly file.  The assembler is smart enough to handle alignment at
-    assemble time for files that have never emitted a relaxable relocation,
-    so this is sufficient to really disable all relaxations in the linker,
-    which results in significantly faster link times for large objects.
-
-    This also has the side effect of allowing toolchains that don't support
-    linker relaxation (LLVM and the Linux module loader) to function
-    correctly.  Toolchains that don't support linker relaxation should
-    default to "-mno-relax" and error when presented with any R_RISCV_ALIGN
-    relocation as those need to be handled for correctness.
