[PATCH 4/4] modules: Add missing entry for __ex_table

From: deller@kernel.org
Date: 2023-11-22 22:18:40
Also in: linux-arch, lkml
Subsystem: module support, the rest · Maintainers: Luis Chamberlain, Petr Pavlu, Daniel Gomez, Sami Tolvanen, Linus Torvalds

From: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

The entry for __ex_table was missing, which may make __ex_table
become 1- or 2-byte aligned in modules.
Add the entry to ensure it gets 32-bit aligned.
