[PATCH 2/2] objtool: Fix seg fault with clang-compiled objects

From: Josh Poimboeuf
Date: Sat Dec 30 2017 - 15:43:48 EST


From: Simon Ser <contact@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Fix a seg fault which happens when an input file provided to 'objtool
orc generate' doesn't have a '.shstrtab' section (for instance, object
files produced by clang don't have this section).
