Subject: kbuild/modpost: improve warnings if symbol is unknown
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f666751a0ab1d1671855da7e98889256b9a5b1bb;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

kbuild/modpost: improve warnings if symbol is unknown

If we cannot determine the symbol then print
(unknown) to hint the reader that we failed to
find the symbol.
This happens with REL relocation records
in arm object files.
