Hi,
during 'make modules' on s390x, I see lots of warnings about 'ignoring changed section attributes for __ksymtab' that I have found to be the result of changeset 1.373.196.1, where Kai changed the defaults for module exports to 'no symbols exported'.
The problem is that there is a section '__ksymtab,"a"', while s390x requires it to be '__ksymtab,"aw"' because modules must be compiled with '-fpic' here, unlike afaics all the other architectures.
The patch below is a workaround for the Problem and should be correct on all architectures, but I'd prefer if there was a nicer way to do that.
