The recent change enabling HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT on powerpc started
showing the following issue:

Looking at the relocation records in __mcount_loc showed a few spurious
entries:
  RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [__mcount_loc]:
  OFFSET           TYPE              VALUE
  0000000000000000 R_PPC64_ADDR64    .text.unlikely+0x0000000000000008

  0000000000000028 R_PPC64_ADDR64    .init.text+0x0000000000000014

The first entry in each section is incorrect. Looking at the relocation
records, the spurious entries correspond to the R_PPC64_ENTRY records:
  RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [.text.unlikely]:
  OFFSET           TYPE              VALUE
  0000000000000000 R_PPC64_REL64     .TOC.-0x0000000000000008
  0000000000000008 R_PPC64_ENTRY     *ABS*
  0000000000000014 R_PPC64_REL24     _mcount
  <snip>

The problem is that we are not validating the return value from
get_mcountsym() in sift_rel_mcount(). With this entry, mcountsym is 0,
but Elf_r_sym(relp) also ends up being 0. Fix this by ensuring mcountsym
is valid before processing the entry.

Aha, thanks. I saw that on one of my text boxes but hadn't pinned it
down to this commit.

> Fixes: c7d64b560ce80 ("powerpc/ftrace: Enable C Version of recordmcount")

That commit is the tip of my next, so I'll drop it for now and merge
them in the other order so there's breakage.

Steve are you OK if I merge this via the powerpc tree? I'll reword the
commit message so that it makes sense coming prior to the commit
mentioned above.

cheers
