Clang's assembler does not like the syntax of the cmpdi:

 arch/powerpc/boot/crt0.S:168:22: error: unexpected modifier on variable reference
         cmpdi   12,RELACOUNT@l
                              ^
 arch/powerpc/boot/crt0.S:168:11: error: unknown operand
         cmpdi   12,RELACOUNT@l
                   ^
Enclosing RELACOUNT in () makes it is happy. Tested with GCC 8 and Clang
8 (trunk).

Reported to clang as https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38945

Yep, as we can see above, when RELACOUNT is negated, it's wrapped in
parens.  It's important for Clang's assembler to match GAS eventually,
but for now, this change simply cononicalizes all of the the
references to RELACOUNT in this source file.

The only thing that does is make it easier for humans to read; it means
exactly the same thing.

Looks like this was just fixed in Clang-8:

Nice!

mpe, given we need the local references to labels fix which is also in
clang-8 I suggest we drop this patch.

Cheers,
