I was being overly paranoid in not updating the execobject.offset after
performing the fallback copy where we set reloc.presumed_offset to -1.
The thinking was to ensure that a subsequent NORELOC execbuf would be
forced to process the invalid relocations. However this is overkill so
long as we *only* update the execobject.offset following a successful
update of the relocation value witin the batch. If we have to repeat the
execbuf due to a later interruption, then we may skip the relocations on
the second pass (honouring NORELOC) since the execobject.offset match
the actual offsets (even though reloc.presumed_offset is garbage).

Subsequent calls to execbuf with NORELOC should themselves ensure that
the reloc.presumed_offset have been corrected in case of future
migration.

Reporting back the actual execobject.offset, even when
reloc.presumed_offset is garbage, ensures that reuse of those objects
use the latest information to avoid relocations.

README
Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
