After elf_update_group_sh_info() was introduced, a prototype version of
"objtool klp diff" went from taking ~1s to several minutes, due to
looping almost endlessly in elf_update_group_sh_info() while creating
thousands of local symbols in a file with thousands of sections.
Dramatically improve the performance by marking all symbols' correlated
SHT_GROUP sections while reading the object. That way there's no need
to search for it every time a symbol gets reindexed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
