module: workaround duplicate section names
The root cause is a duplicate section name (.text); is this legal? [ Amerigo Wang: "AFAIK, yes." ] However, there's a problem with commit 6d76013381ed28979cd122eb4b249a88b5e384fa in that if you fail to allocate a mod->sect_attrs (in this case it's null because of the duplication), it still gets used without checking in add_notes_attrs() This should fix it [ This patch leaves other problems, particularly the sections directory, but recent parisc toolchains seem to produce these modules and this prevents a crash and is a minimal change -- RR ] Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Tested-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
