Subject[PATCH] fix broken kallsyms on non-x86 archs
Date
From
kallsyms is broken in parisc on 2.5.56 again because of assembler syntax 
subtleties. This is the offending line:

printf("\t.byte 0x%02x ; .asciz\t\"%s\"\n"

Note the `;' separating the two statements. On some platforms `;' is a
comment in assembly code, and thus the following .asciz is ignored. The fix
is attached.
