xen: suppress abs symbol warnings for unused reloc pointers
arch/i386/xen/xen-asm.S defines some small pieces of code which are used to implement a few paravirt_ops. They're designed so they can be used either in-place, or be inline patched into their callsites if there's enough space. Some of those operations need to make calls out (specifically, if you re-enable events [interrupts], and there's a pending event at that time). These calls need the call instruction to be relocated if the code is patched inline. In this case xen_foo_reloc is a section-relative symbol which points to xen_foo's required relocation. Other operations have no need of a relocation, and so their corresponding xen_bar_reloc is absolute 0. These are the cases which are triggering the warning. This patch adds those symbols to the list of safe abs symbols. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xensource.com> Cc: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>
