We strongly prefer to have a short comment on every reloc type #define.
The R_ARM_PRIVATE_* ones look a bit suspect to me. That spec document does
describe that space of names, though it doesn't list them individually.
But I really wonder if anybody actually wants or uses those names.
binutils doesn't use them.
But those are just my immediate reactions. The specifics of what should or
shouldn't go in are up to Joseph as the ARM maintainer.
Thanks,
Roland
