Newer GCC can eliminate the reference. See my comment in arch/x86/boot/compressed/pgtable_64.c. Maybe we should expand the comment here too?

The __startup_64 function assumes all symbols have relocated addresses instead of the current boot virtual address. PIE generated code favor relative addresses making all virtual and physical address math incorrect. If PIE is enabled, build head64.c as mcmodel large instead to ensure absolute references on all memory access. Add a global __force_order variable required when using a large model with read_cr* functions. To build head64.c as mcmodel=large, disable the retpoline gcc flags. This code is used at early boot and removed later, it doesn't need retpoline mitigation. Position Independent Executable (PIE) support will allow to extend the KASLR randomization range below 0xffffffff80000000.
