[PATCH 2/4] elf: Move note processing after l_phdr is updated [BZ #26831]
From: Szabolcs Nagy
Date: Tue Nov 03 2020 - 05:27:18 EST
Program headers are processed in two pass: after the first pass
load segments are mmapped so in the second pass target specific
note processing logic can access the notes.
The second pass is moved later so various link_map fields are
set up that may be useful for note processing such as l_phdr.
