May I humbly ask why the [Finnish] you don't use the equivalent of the x86 _ASM_EXTABLE() macro? In fact, why don't we make that one generic, too?I'm messing with that right now (with help from Andy Lutomirski and Boris) to add different classes of exception table (so I can tag some instructions as being suitable for fixup from the machine check handler). So it might not be generic for much longer. http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=145187079504846&w=2
I suspect that means we will also need to go back to arch-specific sorting for x86. -hpa
