dma-debug: switch check from _text to _stext
commit ea535e418c01837d07b6c94e817540f50bfdadb0 upstream.
In include/asm-generic/sections.h:
/*
* Usage guidelines:
* _text, _data: architecture specific, don't use them in
* arch-independent code
* [_stext, _etext]: contains .text.* sections, may also contain
* .rodata.*
* and/or .init.* sections
_text is not guaranteed across architectures. Architectures such as ARM
may reuse parts which are not actually text and erroneously trigger a bug.
Switch to using _stext which is guaranteed to contain text sections.
