[PATCH 5.12 056/110] recordmcount: Correct st_shndx handling

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Mon Jun 28 2021 - 10:23:27 EST


From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit fb780761e7bd9f2e94f5b9a296ead6b35b944206 ]

One should only use st_shndx when >SHN_UNDEF and <SHN_LORESERVE. When
SHN_XINDEX, then use .symtab_shndx. Otherwise use 0.

This handles the case: st_shndx >= SHN_LORESERVE && st_shndx != SHN_XINDEX.
