Subject: [PATCH] fix sparc32 breakage (result of vmlinux.lds.S bug)

	In commit 4665079cbb2a3e17de82f2ab2940b9f97f37d65e ([NETNS]: Move
some code into __init section when CONFIG_NET_NS=n) we got a new section -
.exit.text.refok (more of 'let's tell modpost that some bogus calls are
not bogus', a-la text.init.refok).
	Unfortunately, commit in question forgot to add it to TEXT_TEXT,
with rather amusing results.
