Subject: [PATCH v2] recordmcount: Correct st_shndx handling

One should only use st_shndx when >SHN_UNDEF and <SHN_LORESERVE. When
SHN_XINDEX, then use .symtab_shndx. Otherwise use 0.

This handles the case: st_shndx >= SHN_LORESERVE && st_shndx != SHN_XINDEX.

Please explain the two signed-off-by's above. If you are just tweaking
Peter's original patch, please add at the start:

From: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <[email protected]>

And then just above your signed off by, add what you changed:

Tested-by: Mark-PK Tsai <[email protected]>
[ Changed something ]
Signed-off-by: Mark-PK Tsai <[email protected]>

But state what you changed.

Thanks!

Sorry for messing up.
I've fixed it in v3.

Thanks for your comment.
