There are three architectures with function descriptors, try to have common names for the address they contain in order to refactor some functions into generic functions later. powerpc has 'entry' ia64 has 'ip' parisc has 'addr' Vote for 'addr' and update 'func_descr_t' accordingly. Move it in asm/elf.h to have it at the same place on all three architectures, remove the typedef which hides its real type, and change it to a smoother name 'struct func_desc'.

I like the name. :) Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <redacted> -- Kees Cook
