pbl_set_putc may be called by a PBL entry point to store the absolute
address of a routine to be used for printing out a character.
If barebox happens to be located outside of the initially known RAM,
it will be relocated into it by means of relocate_to_adr(), but nothing
will take care to update the function pointer stored by pbl_set_putc.
This will usually continue to work until barebox sets up the MMU and
everything not known to be RAM is marked as eXecute Never. After that,
the next PBL console print will trigger an instruction abort.
Fix this by not storing the putc function pointer, but instead an offset
relative to _text.
This is the second part of fixing barebox hanging on i.MX8M when located
at an address greater than 4G.
This change has been tested on both i.MX8M (AArch64) and i.MX6 (Thumb2).
