The imagemagick issue might be missed inlining.
I'm working on call* piglits, which mark functions as 'noinline' to
force function calls.
the code clearly expects relative function address:
        s_getpc_b64 s[8:9]
        s_add_u32 s8, s8, i64_func_void at rel32@lo+4
        s_addc_u32 s9, s9, i64_func_void at rel32@hi+4
        s_mov_b32 s32, s10
        s_swappc_b64 s[30:31], s[8:9]
Inspecting the asm and symbol table, the callee functions are there.
It might be that relocations issued for amdgcn-mesa-mesa3d triple are
busted, I'd expect it to use single 4B relative pointer, but last time
I talked to Matt he said it looked correct.
