Anders Kaseorg b614a697dc kbuild, modpost: Check the section flags, to catch missing "ax"/"aw" ... When you put .section ".foo" in an assembly file instead of .section "foo", "ax" , one of the possible symptoms is that modpost will see an ld-generated section name ".foo.1" in section_rel() or section_rela(). But this heuristic has two problems: it will miss a bad section that has no relocations, and it will incorrectly flag many gcc-generated sections as bad when compiling with -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections. On mips it fixes a lot of bogus warnings with gcc 4.4.0 lije this one: WARNING: crypto/cryptd.o (.text.T.349): unexpected section name. So instead of checking whether the section name matches a particular pattern, we directly check for a missing SHF_ALLOC in the section flags.
