[binutils-gdb] [GOLD] Don't install branch-to-stub for TLS relaxed ERRATUM 843419 sequences on AArch64

    [GOLD] Don't install branch-to-stub for TLS relaxed ERRATUM 843419 sequences on AArch64
    
    TLS relaxation may change erratum 843419 sequences that those offending ADRP
    instructions actually transformed into other instructions in which case there
    is erratum 843419 risk anymore that we should avoid installing unnecessary
    branch-to-stub.
    
    gold/
            * aarch64.cc (Insn_utilities::is_mrs_tpidr_el0): New method.
            (AArch64_relobj<size, big_endian>::try_fix_erratum_843419_optimized):
            Return ture for some TLS relaxed sequences.
