Indeed. Before doing the section magic thing, there were explicit
calls, and it was causing conflicts every time I was rebasing the patch
series to shuffle things around.
There are already gazillions of magic ELF sections being used all over
the place, so I'd say this mechanism is no longer magic for most of the
kernel people nowadays.
Best regards,
Thomas
