commit 4d8b35968bbf9e42b6b202eedb510e2c82ad8b38 upstream.
Converting a special section's relocation reference to a symbol is
straightforward. No need for objtool to complain that it doesn't know
how to handle it. Just handle it.
This fixes the following warning:
arch/x86/kvm/emulate.o: warning: objtool: __ex_table+0x4: don't know how to handle reloc symbol type: kvm_fastop_exception
Fixes: 24ff65257375 ("objtool: Teach get_alt_entry() about more relocation types")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
