ok, I've modified your v2 patch to fix the following compilation warning
and rewrite the commit log, and attached it.

arm64.c: In function ‘arm64_init’:
arm64.c:3728:35: warning: ‘note’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
     offset = roundup(offset + note->n_namesz, 4);
                                   ^~

Lianbo, could you review the attached patch?

Thanks,
Kazu
