[Xen-devel] [PATCH for-4.9 v2] xen/livepatch: Don't crash on encountering STN_UNDEF relocations



A symndx of STN_UNDEF is special, and means a symbol value of 0.  While
legitimate in the ELF standard, its existance in a livepatch is questionable
at best.  Until a plausible usecase presents itself, reject such a relocation
with -EOPNOTSUPP.

Additionally, perform a safety check on elf->sym[symndx].sym before
derefencing it, to avoid tripping over a NULL pointer when calculating val.
