Since that output is not helpful to most people building the kernel, turn it off by default. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Acked-by: David Daney <david.daney@cavium.com> Cc: "H.

If there are relocations on the __ex_table section, they are redundant and probably incorrect after the sort, so they are zeroed out leaving them valid and consistent.
