As noted on #musl, this has  __attribute__((pointer)) in the original
definition. But trying to avoid the #include <unwind.h> on GCC's
headers, and the GCCisms. 

Would uintptr_t be more suitable here then?

The above function has a slight bug in it, so I'll fix that for next
send. Basically it can return other dso's exidx data if the matching
dso did not have PT_ARM_EXIDX at all.
