[ Upstream commit 397586506c3da005b9333ce5947ad01e8018a3be ]
After the linked LLVM change, building ARCH=um defconfig results in a
segmentation fault in modpost. Prior to commit a23e7584ecf3 ("modpost:
unify 'sym' and 'to' in default_mismatch_handler()"), there was a
warning:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(__ex_table+0x88): Section mismatch in reference to the .ltext:(unknown)
WARNING: modpost: The relocation at __ex_table+0x88 references
section ".ltext" which is not in the list of
authorized sections. If you're adding a new section
and/or if this reference is valid, add ".ltext" to the
list of authorized sections to jump to on fault.
This can be achieved by adding ".ltext" to
OTHER_TEXT_SECTIONS in scripts/mod/modpost.c.
The linked LLVM change moves global objects to the '.ltext' (and
'.ltext.*' with '-ffunction-sections') sections with '-mcmodel=large',
which ARCH=um uses. These sections should be handled just as '.text'
and '.text.*' are, so add them to TEXT_SECTIONS.
