As is done for other architectures, sort the exception table at
build-time rather than during boot.
Since sortextable appears to be a standalone C program relying on the
host elf.h to provide EM_AARCH64, I've had to add a conditional check in
order to allow cross-compilation on machines that aren't running a
bleeding-edge libc-dev.

Add the ARM machine identifier to sortextable and select the
config option so that we can sort the exception table at compile
time. sortextable relies on a section named __ex_table existing
in the vmlinux, but ARM's linker script places the exception
table in the data section. Give the exception table its own
section so that sortextable can find it.
This allows us to skip the sorting step during boot.

This is the s390 port of 70627654 "x86, extable: Switch to relative
exception table entries".
Reduces the size of our exception tables by 50% on 64 bit builds.

Follow x86 and MIPS and sort the main exception table at build time.

x86 is now using relative rather than absolute addresses in its
exception table, so we add a sorter for these. If there are
relocations on the __ex_table section, they are redundant and probably
incorrect after the sort, so they are zeroed out leaving them valid
and consistent.
Also use the unaligned safe accessors from tools/{be,le}_byteshift.h

Using this build-time sort saves time booting as we don't have to burn
cycles sorting the exception table.
