Please don't use --- at the start of a line, it is used to separate from
the patch itself, later down your message.
It causes this:
[acme@...e perf]$ am /wb/1.patch
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/acme/bin/ksoff.py", line 180, in <module>
sign_msg(sys.stdin, sys.stdout)
File "/home/acme/bin/ksoff.py", line 142, in sign_msg
sob.remove(last_sob[0])
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable
[acme@...e perf]$
I'm fixing this by removing that --- markers
> The cause of the issue is that the first instruction in the compile unit
> indicated by DW_AT_low_pc does not include NOPs.
> This issue exists in all gcc versions that support
> -fpatchable-function-entry option.
