module: handle ppc64 relocating kcrctabs when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit d4703ae upstream.

powerpc applies relocations to the kcrctab.  They're absolute symbols,
but it's not completely unreasonable: other archs may too, but the
relocation is often 0.
