Subject: [PATCH 3/4] build system: section garbage collection for vmlinux

This patch makes modpost able to process object files with more than
64k sections. Needed for huge kernel builds (allyesconfig, for example)
with --gc-sections.

This patch basically fixes modpost, it isn't specific
for section garbage collection.

Please apply.
