Subject: [PATCH 2/3] x86-64: use relative 32-bit pointers in exception
tables
Convert exception table pointers from absolute 64-bit to relative 32-
bit ones, thus shrinking the table size by half. Rather than providing
an x86-64-specific extable implementation, generalize the common one
to deal with different ways of storing the pointers, which will allow
ia64's custom implementation to be dropped subsequently.
