board_r - fixup functions table after relocation
This is only required for "PIC" relocation and doesn't apply to modern
"PIE" relocation which does data relocation as well as code.
"init_sequence_r" is just an array that consists of compile-time
adresses of init functions. Since this is basically an array of integers
(pointers to "void" to be more precise) it won't be modified during
relocation - it will be just copied to new location as it is.
As a consequence on execution after relocation "initcall_run_list" will
be jumping to pre-relocation addresses. As long as we don't overwrite
pre-relocation memory area init calls are executed correctly. But still
it is dangerous because after relocation we don't expect initially used
memory to stay untouched.
