[PATCH 3.2 28/52] recordmcount: Fix endianness handling bug for nop_mcount

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Tue Nov 24 2015 - 17:41:44 EST


3.2.74-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: libin <huawei.libin@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit c84da8b9ad3761eef43811181c7e896e9834b26b upstream.

In nop_mcount, shdr->sh_offset and welp->r_offset should handle
endianness properly, otherwise it will trigger Segmentation fault
if the recordmcount main and file.o have different endianness.
