  Refine commit 349b0441dab375099b1d7f6909c1742286a67da9:

1. Copy relocations for extern protected data do not work properly,
regardless whether GNU_PROPERTY_1_NEEDED_INDIRECT_EXTERN_ACCESS is used.
It makes sense to produce a warning unconditionally.  When the defining
shared object has GNU_PROPERTY_1_NEEDED_INDIRECT_EXTERN_ACCESS, report
an error to satisfy the "no copy relocations" enforcement intended by
this GNU property.

2. Non-zero value of an undefined function symbol may break pointer
equality, but may be benign in many cases (many programs don't take the
address in the shared object then compare it with the address in the
executable).  Reword the diagnostic to be clearer.

3. Remove the unneeded condition !(undef_map->l_1_needed &
GNU_PROPERTY_1_NEEDED_INDIRECT_EXTERN_ACCESS). If the executable has
GNU_PROPERTY_1_NEEDED_INDIRECT_EXTERN_ACCESS (can only occur in error
cases), the diagnostic should be emitted as well.

--
Changes from v1:
* Keep 2 as an error in the presence of GNU_PROPERTY_1_NEEDED_INDIRECT_EXTERN_ACCESS
  as requested by H.J. Lu.

Does this patch cause any extra glibc test failures?

`make -j 50 check` has no regression on x86-64.
