[PATCH] module: Fix up CONFIG_KALLSYMS=n build.

From: Paul Mundt
Date: Thu Sep 24 2009 - 23:46:43 EST


Starting from commit 4a4962263f07d14660849ec134ee42b63e95ea9a
"reduce symbol table for loaded modules (v2)", the kernel/module.c build
is broken with CONFIG_KALLSYMS disabled.

CC kernel/module.o
kernel/module.c:1995: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'Elf_Hdr'
kernel/module.c:1995: error: expected ';', ',' or ')' before '*' token
kernel/module.c: In function 'load_module':
kernel/module.c:2203: error: 'strmap' undeclared (first use in this function)
kernel/module.c:2203: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
kernel/module.c:2203: error: for each function it appears in.)
kernel/module.c:2239: error: 'symoffs' undeclared (first use in this function)
kernel/module.c:2239: error: implicit declaration of function 'layout_symtab'
kernel/module.c:2240: error: 'stroffs' undeclared (first use in this function)
make[1]: *** [kernel/module.o] Error 1
make: *** [kernel/module.o] Error 2

There are three different issues:

- layout_symtab() takes a const Elf_Ehdr

- layout_symtab() needs to return a value

- symoffs/stroffs/strmap are referenced by the load_module() code
despite being ifdefed out, which seems unnecessary given the noop
behaviour of layout_symtab()/add_kallsyms() in the case of
CONFIG_KALLSYMS=n.
