Subject: [PATCH] perf probe powerpc: Ignore SyS symbols irrespective of endianness
Date:   Tue, 28 Aug 2018 14:38:48 +0530
Message-Id: <20180828090848.1914-1-sandipan@linux.ibm.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

This makes sure that the SyS symbols are ignored for any powerpc
system, not just the big endian ones.

Fixes: fb6d59423115 ("perf probe ppc: Use the right prefix when ignoring SyS symbols on ppc")
