Subject: [PATCH] modpost: Fix reversed symbol name order

XXXINIT_TO_INIT and XXXEXIT_TO_EXIT warnings use the reversed symbol name order
in the suggestion, e.g.:

    WARNING: vmlinux.o(.meminit.text+0x36c): Section mismatch in reference from the function free_area_init_core() to the function .init.text:setup_usemap()
    The function __meminit free_area_init_core() references
    a function __init setup_usemap().
    If free_area_init_core is only used by setup_usemap then
    annotate free_area_init_core with a matching annotation.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
