This fixes a linker error when the kernel image gets bigger than approx.
1 MiB.

This is done analogous to the change to head.S in commit

	a75e524 (ARM: 6504/1: Thumb-2: Fix long-distance conditional branches in head.S for Thumb-2.)

Like in the other cases, please add a short comment on that line 
justifying it, otherwise it may look redundant.
