Commit 6713c27
kernel/extable.c: use address-of operator on section symbols
commit 63174f6 upstream.
Clang warns:
../kernel/extable.c:37:52: warning: array comparison always evaluates to
a constant [-Wtautological-compare]
if (main_extable_sort_needed && __stop___ex_table > __start___ex_table) {
^
1 warning generated.
These are not true arrays, they are linker defined symbols, which are just
addresses. Using the address of operator silences the warning and does
not change the resulting assembly with either clang/ld.lld or gcc/ld
(tested with diff + objdump -Dr).
