[PATCH 6.12 061/204] scripts/sorttable: Make compare_extable() into two functions

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

[ Upstream commit 7ffc0d0819f438779ed592e2e2e3576f43ce14f0 ]

Instead of having the compare_extable() part of the sorttable.h header
where it get's defined twice, since it is a very simple function, just
define it twice in sorttable.c, and then it can use the proper read
functions for the word size and endianess and the Elf_Addr macro can be
removed from sorttable.h.

Also add a micro optimization. Instead of:

    if (a < b)
        return -1;
    if (a > b)
        return 1;
    return 0;

That can be shorten to:

   if (a < b)
      return -1;
   return a > b;
