[PATCH] powerpc64: Fix loading of modules without a .toc section
Normally, ppc64 module .ko files contain a table-of-contents (.toc) section, but if the module doesn't reference any static or external data or external procedures, it is possible for gcc/binutils to generate a .ko that doesn't have a .toc. Currently the module loader refuses to load such a module, since it needs the address of the .toc section to use in relocations. This patch fixes the problem by using the address of the .stubs section instead, which is an acceptable substitute in this situation. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
