I prefer to add an ifdef CONFIG_IMMEDIATE to module.c to follow what I
have already done previously. Defining this empty structure is a bit
odd. Here is the updated patch.
Thanks for testing/reporting this.

Immediate Values Support init
Supports placing immediate values in init code
We need to put the immediate values in RW data section so we can edit them
before init section unload.
This code puts NULL pointers in lieu of original pointer referencing init code
before the init sections are freed, both in the core kernel and in modules.
TODO : support __exit section.
Changelog:
- Fix !CONFIG_IMMEDIATE
