arch/tile: avoid generating .eh_frame information in modules
commit 627072b06c362bbe7dc256f618aaa63351f0cfe6 upstream. The tile tool chain uses the .eh_frame information for backtracing. The vmlinux build drops any .eh_frame sections at link time, but when present in kernel modules, it causes a module load failure due to the presence of unsupported pc-relative relocations. When compiling to use compiler feedback support, the compiler by default omits .eh_frame information, so we don't see this problem. But when not using feedback, we need to explicitly suppress the .eh_frame. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
