+Subject: [PATCH] create-diff-object: Create missing section symbol
+
+Recent toolchains only create a section symbol if it's needed, i.e. if
+there's a reference to it.  If there's a missing section symbol in
+kpatch_create_intermediate_sections(), create one instead of erroring
+out.
+
+Fixes #1272.
