I appreciate the effort, but I really don't want to make this into a
project that seeps into the other architectures, or into the general symbol
handling code. And although it probably wouldn't be an issue in this
case, I don't like to change interfaces defined in defs.h because they
can-be/are used by extension modules, and something like this could
conceivably break one.
All of the architectures have their own xxxx_verify_symbol() function
to perform whatever machine-specific hacks that they require. And since
it's a simple STREQ("_kernel_flags_le") check, please let's just keep it
in-house so to speak.
Thanks,
Dave
