[Xen-devel] livepatch-build-tools: fix section mismatch

[Glenn Enright <glenn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I hit an issue generating a livepatch for a recent xsa. I saw the 
following lines from the create-diff-object.log ...
/livepatch-build-tools/create-diff-object: ERROR: grant_table.o: 
kpatch_regenerate_special_section: 1162: group size mismatch for section 
.altinstructions
This looks really similar to the issue reported and fixed in 
https://github.com/dynup/kpatch/pull/528
The attached patch is based on that report, and resulted in a good 
livepatch. The alt section size in my case was actually 14.
Regards, Glenn
