[PATCH v3 09/21] extable: add support for relative extables to search and sort routines

Ard Biesheuvel
2016-01-11T13:19:02Z

This adds support to the generic search_extable() and sort_extable()
implementations for dealing with exception table entries whose fields
contain relative offsets rather than absolute addresses.
