Similar fault with ddb5cdbafaaa:
The alignment of the __kstrtab_ symbols in vmlinux seems wrong.  I'm fairly certain that function
references prefixed with P% on hppa64 need 8 byte alignment.

I'm not sure how we get symbols that aren't 8 byte aligned.  The ".balign 4" directive
in __KSYMTAB doesn't seem correct but it's not the whole problem.
