    x86/srso: Fix build breakage with the LLVM linker

    The assertion added to verify the difference in bits set of the
    addresses of srso_untrain_ret_alias() and srso_safe_ret_alias() would fail
    to link in LLVM's ld.lld linker with the following error:

      ld.lld: error: ./arch/x86/kernel/vmlinux.lds:210: at least one side of
      the expression must be absolute
      ld.lld: error: ./arch/x86/kernel/vmlinux.lds:211: at least one side of
      the expression must be absolute

    Use ABSOLUTE to evaluate the expression referring to at least one of the
    symbols so that LLD can evaluate the linker script.

    Also, add linker version info to the comment about XOR being unsupported
    in either ld.bfd or ld.lld until somewhat recently.
