If the hypervisor has been built with EFI support (ie: multiboot2).
This allows to position the .reloc section correctly in the output
binary, or else the linker might place .reloc before the .text
section.
Note that the .reloc section is moved before .bss for two reasons: in
order for the resulting binary to not contain any section with data
after .bss, so that the file size can be smaller than the loaded
memory size, and because the data it contains is read-only, so it
belongs with the other sections containing read-only data.
