From: Ard Biesheuvel ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2017 17:41:29 +0000 Subject: arm64: module-plts: factor out PLT generation code for ftrace

From: Ard Biesheuvel ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org

commit 7e8b9c1d2e2f5f45db7d40b50d14f606097c25de upstream.

To allow the ftrace trampoline code to reuse the PLT entry routines, factor it out and move it into asm/module.h.
