[ELF][MIPS] Make R_MIPS_LO16 a relative relocation if it references _gp_disp symbol
The _gp_disp symbol designates offset between start of function and 'gp' pointer into GOT. The following code is a typical MIPS function preamble used to setup $gp register: lui $gp, %hi(_gp_disp) addi $gp, $gp, %lo(_gp_disp) To calculate R_MIPS_HI16 / R_MIPS_LO16 relocations results we use the following formulas: %hi(_gp - P + A) %lo(_gp - P + A + 4), where _gp is a value of _gp symbol, A is addend, and P current address. The R_MIPS_LO16 relocation references _gp_disp symbol is always the second instruction. That is why we need four byte adjustments. The patch assigns R_PC type for R_MIPS_LO16 relocation and adjusts its addend by 4. That fix R_MIPS_LO16 calculation.
