__ex_table ends up with two entries:Hmm, how about the following? :-)
Contents of section __ex_table:

0010 10000000 0a000000 12000000 0a000000 ................
The first is for the __put_user in .text (extable_not_init()) and the
second is for the one in .init.text (init()).
Depending on how the module gets allocated, the one referring to
.init.text may be first or last.
struct exception_table_entry *p = mod->extable;
for (;p <= mod->extable+mod->num_exentries; p++ )
if (with_in_module_init(p->insn, mod))
trim_it(p);
More like this:
void trim_init_extable(struct module *m)
{
/* Since entries are sorted, init entries are at the start... */
while (m->num_exentries && within_module_init(m->extable[0].insn)) {
m->extable++;
m->num_exentries--;
}
/* ... or the end. */
while (m->num_exentries && within_module_init(m->extable[m->num_exentries-1].insn))
m->num_exentries--;
}
