Hi Matt,
I was trying out the patch series on ppc64le and found that __mcount_loc
and .rela__mcount_loc section pairs do not get generated.
# readelf -S fs/proc/cmdline.o|grep mcount
#
Debugged the cause to get_mcountsym()'s return type. It returns reloc
type from GELF_R_INFO() and expects Elf64_Xword a.k.a unsigned long
to be the return type but get_mcountsym() returns unsigned int on 64-bit.
On power the _mcount is of relocation type R_PPC64_REL24 (info 0x170000000a),
using unsigned int truncates the value to 0xa and fails the above check.
Using below fix, that converts mcount_sym_info to use unsigned long, generates
the __mcount_loc section pairs.

the offsets generated for rela__mcount_loc section are incorrect:
# readelf -rW fs/proc/meminfo.o
[...]
Relocation section '.rela__mcount_loc' at offset 0x59a48 contains 4 entries:
Offset Info Type Symbol's Value Symbol's Name + Addend
0000000000000000 0000000200000026 R_PPC64_ADDR64 0000000000000000 .text + c

changing the above line to *r_offsetp += loc_size and initializing
r_offset=0 in do_mcount() generates the correct offset:
