  ret i32* @a

llc produces

        movw    r0, :lower16:(L_a$non_lazy_ptr-(LPC0_0+8))
        movt    r0, :upper16:(L_a$non_lazy_ptr-(LPC0_0+8))
LPC0_0:
        ldr     r0, [pc, r0]

when targeting MachO, but

        ldr     r0, .LCPI0_0
.LPC0_0:
        ldr     r0, [pc, r0]

When targeting ELF.

I think we are missing GOT relative relocations for movw/movt on ELF.</pre>
