Subject: [PATCH 13/33] kbuild: suppress modpost warnings for references from the .toc section as used by powerpc
Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2007 16:08:42 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <11846813432234-git-send-email-sam@ravnborg.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1184681343423-git-send-email-sam@ravnborg.org>
From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>
We should do better here by effetively "dereferencing" references to
the .toc (or the .got2) section, but that is much harder.
