Al Viro 2a3d4f1f1f [PATCH] __crc_... is intended to be absolute ... i386 boot/compressed/relocs checks for absolute symbols and warns about unexpected ones. If you build with modversions, you get ~2500 warnings about __crc_<symbol>. These suckers are really absolute symbols - we do _not_ want to modify them on relocation. They are generated by genksyms - EXPORT_... generates a weak alias, then genksyms produces an ld script with __crc_<symbol> = <checksum> and it's fed to ld to produce the final object file. Their only use is to match kernel and module at modprobe time; they _must_ be absolute. boot/compressed/relocs has a whitelist of known absolute symbols, but it doesn't know about __crc_... stuff. As the result, we get shitloads of false positives on any ld(1) version.
