One should only use st_shndx when >SHN_UNDEF and <SHN_LORESERVE. When
SHN_XINDEX, then use .symtab_shndx. Otherwise use 0.

This handles the case: st_shndx >= SHN_LORESERVE && st_shndx != SHN_XINDEX.

Thanks, I pulled this in and started the testing.

It passed my normal tests. I'll run my cross compile test, and I just
pushed it to linux-next. I'll wait a few days before I push it to Linus.
