Linus reports [0] a build issue when using clang, using a config that
presumably has IBT and retpolines disabled.

In this case, the following diagnostic is emitted.

  Absolute reference to symbol '.rodata' not permitted in .head.text

As Linus explains, this message is not very helpful to the unsuspecting
developer, as it does not really pin down the culprit. So improve this
by adding the addend and the offset to the error message, and demote it
to a warning so the build can complete. This also works around the
unhelpful deleting of vmlinux by make when this condition triggers.

Then, fix the actual issue being reported here, which is a true positive
and indicates that the resulting build is fatally broken on SEV-SNP.
