[PATCH v2 08/13] arm64: use relative references in exception tables
Ard Biesheuvel

Wed Dec 30 07:26:07 PST 2015
Instead of using absolute addresses for both the exception location and
the fixup, use offsets relative to the exception table entry values. This
is a prerequisite for KASLR, since absolute exception table entries are
subject to dynamic relocation, which is incompatible with the sorting of
the exception table that occurs at build time.
