Not important. If linkers can have a common name which is reasonable to both parties, I am happy to do so so that users would need to learn less stuff.

PPC64R12SetupStub is not only used by NOTOC->TOC code, but is also used by NOTOC->NOTOC long branches, so `__long_branch_pcrel` is not that bad. That said, if `__gep_setup` makes more sense, I am happy to use it, too.
