GEN_HANDLER{,2} generate a structure in special ELF section. This may
not work in all cases.
Separate the structure from op function, later change the ELF section
hack to a normal C table.
This passes my tests.
Blue Swirl (5):
Clean up GEN_HANDLER
Clean up GEN_HANDLER2
Concentrate most table entries to top
Concentrate rest of table entries to top
Replace ELF section hack with normal table

Have you tried this on PPC hosts? IIRC malc put in a configure hack to
make PPC hosts work with the elf section hacks which should be
obsolete with your patch, right? So you can remove the hack as well.
