From bb7d83f74477b41a2dee71771805c8447cdaa70f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ralf Baechle Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2006 14:13:04 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] [MIPS] Discard .exit.text at runtime. At times gcc will place bits of __exit functions into .rodata. If compiled into the kernle itself we used to discard .exit.text - but not the bits left in .rodata. While harmless this did at times result in a large number of warnings. So until gcc fixes this, discard .exit.text at runtime.
