There are three architectures with function descriptors, try to have common names for the address they contain in order to refactor some functions into generic functions later. powerpc has 'entry' ia64 has 'ip' parisc has 'addr' Vote for 'addr' and update 'func_descr_t' accordingly. Move it in asm/elf.h to have it at the same place on all three architectures, remove the typedef which hides its real type, and change it to a smoother name 'struct func_desc'.

README
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 Restructured Text 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.
