Hi Alex. If we tag fixup_riscv_call with FKF_IsPCRel, Assembler will try to applyFixup when the function and the call site within the same compile unit. So when relaxation disabled, shouldForceRelocation return false, will trigger "Unknown fixup kind!" in adjustFixupValue function. I think we should define as `{fixup_riscv_call, 0, 32, 0 }` or `{fixup_riscv_call", 0, 0, 0 }` to indicate that the fixup should never apply. Another solution is define as `{fixup_riscv_call, 0, 32, MCFixupKindInfo::FKF_IsPCRel }`  but always return true in shouldForceRelocation if the fixup is `fixup_riscv_call`. What do you think?
