*	objtool, modules: Discard objtool annotation sections for modules	Josh Poimboeuf	2017-03-01	1	-1/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	The '__unreachable' and '__func_stack_frame_non_standard' sections are only used at compile time. They're discarded for vmlinux but they should also be discarded for modules. Since this is a recurring pattern, prefix the section names with ".discard.". It's a nice convention and vmlinux.lds.h already discards such sections. Also remove the 'a' (allocatable) flag from the __unreachable section since it doesn't make sense for a discarded section.

*	objtool: Add STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD() macro	Josh Poimboeuf	2016-02-29	1	-0/+23
	Add a new macro, STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD(), which is used to denote a function which does something unusual related to its stack frame. Use of the macro prevents objtool from emitting a false positive warning.
