[PATCH] modpost: Add .irqentry.text to OTHER_SECTIONS
From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Sun Dec 01 2024 - 06:17:49 EST
The compiler can fully inline the actual handler function of an interrupt
entry into the .irqentry.text entry point. If such a function contains an
access which has an exception table entry, modpost complains about a
section mismatch:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(__ex_table+0x447c): Section mismatch in reference ...
The relocation at __ex_table+0x447c references section ".irqentry.text"
which is not in the list of authorized sections.
Add .irqentry.text to OTHER_SECTIONS to cure the issue.
