module: do not binary-search in __ksymtab_gpl if fsa->gplok is false
Currently, !fsa->gplok && syms->license == GPL_ONLY) is checked after bsearch() succeeds. It is meaningless to do the binary search in the GPL symbol table when fsa->gplok is false because we know find_exported_symbol_in_section() will fail anyway. This check should be done before bsearch(). Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org>
