riscv: add as-options for modules with assembly compontents
When trying to load modules built for RISC-V which include assembly files the kernel loader errors with "unexpected relocation type 'R_RISCV_ALIGN'" due to R_RISCV_ALIGN relocations being generated by the assembler. The R_RISCV_ALIGN relocations can be removed at the expense of code space by adding -mno-relax to gcc and as. In commit 7a8e7da42250138 ("RISC-V: Fixes to module loading") -mno-relax is added to the build variable KBUILD_CFLAGS_MODULE. See [1] for more info. The issue is that when kbuild builds a .S file, it invokes gcc with the -mno-relax flag, but this is not being passed through to the assembler. Adding -Wa,-mno-relax to KBUILD_AFLAGS_MODULE ensures that the assembler is invoked correctly. This may have now been fixed in gcc[2] and this addition should not stop newer gcc and as from working.
