objtool: Fix elf_create_undef_symbol() endianness
Currently x86 cross-compilation fails on big endian system with: x86_64-cross-ld: init/main.o: invalid string offset 488112128 >= 6229 for section `.strtab' Mark new ELF data in elf_create_undef_symbol() as symbol, so that libelf does endianness handling correctly. Fixes: 2f2f7e47f052 ("objtool: Add elf_create_undef_symbol()") Signed-off-by: Vasily Gorbik <gor@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/patch-1.thread-6c9df9.git-d39264656387.your-ad-here.call-01620841104-ext-2554@work.hours
