um: Switch to large mcmodel on x86_64
x86_64 UML is unable to load modules if more than 504MiB of memory are used. This happens because on x86_64 the UML process has a quite high start address (typically around 0x6000000). If UML's memory is larger than 504MiB VMALLOC_START happens to be after 0x8000000. This is no problem unless one loads a module which was built with R_X86_64_32S relocations. Symbols with a location > 0x8000000 cannot be used with R_X86_64_32S To deal with this x86_64 UML has to be compiled with -mcmodel=large such that no R_X86_64_32S relocations are used.
