-Likewise, binutils has no idea about any of these new targets either, so we
-fix that up too.. now we're able to actually build a real toolchain for
-sh2a_nofpu- and other more ineptly named toolchains (and yes, there are more
-inept targets than that one, really. Go look, I promise).

-Subject: [PATCH] bfd/elf32-or1k: fix building with gcc version < 5
-
-Gcc version >= 5 has standard C mode not set to -std=gnu11, so if we use
-an old compiler(i.e. gcc 4.9) build fails on:
-```
-elf32-or1k.c:2251:3: error: 'for' loop initial declarations are only allowed in
-C99 or C11 mode
-    for (size_t i = 0; i < insn_count; i++)
-    ^
-```
-
-So let's declare `size_t i` at the top of the function instead of inside
-for loop.

-Subject: [PATCH] or1k: Avoid R_OR1K_GOT16 signed overflow by using special
- howto
-
-Previously when fixing PR 21464 we masked out upper bits of the
-relocation value in order to avoid overflow complaints when acceptable.
-It turns out this does not work when the relocation value ends up being
-signed.
-
-To fix this this patch introduces a special howto with
-complain_on_overflow set to complain_overflow_dont.  This is used in
-place of the normal R_OR1K_GOT16 howto when we detect R_OR1K_GOT_AHI16
-relocations.
-
-bfd/ChangeLog:
-
-	PR 28735
-	* elf32-or1k.c (or1k_elf_got16_no_overflow_howto): Define.
-	(or1k_elf_relocate_section): Use new howto instead of trying to
-	mask out relocation bits.
