arm64: errata: Pass --fix-cortex-a53-843419 to ld if workaround enabled

Browse Source 
Cortex-A53 erratum 843419 is worked around by the linker, although it is
a configure-time option to GCC as to whether ld is actually asked to
apply the workaround or not.

This patch ensures that we pass --fix-cortex-a53-843419 to the linker
when both CONFIG_ARM64_ERRATUM_843419=y and the linker supports the
option.

This option builds kernel modules using the large memory model in
order to avoid the use of the ADRP instruction, which can cause
a subsequent memory access to use an incorrect address on Cortex-A53
parts up to r0p4.
Note that the kernel itself must be linked with a version of ld
which fixes potentially affected ADRP instructions through the
use of veneers.
This option links the kernel with '--fix-cortex-a53-843419' and
builds modules using the large memory model in order to avoid the use
of the ADRP instruction, which can cause a subsequent memory access
to use an incorrect address on Cortex-A53 parts up to r0p4.
If unsure, say Y.
