Subject: [PATCH v8 3/6] module: use relative references for __ksymtab entries

An ordinary arm64 defconfig build has ~64 KB worth of __ksymtab
entries, each consisting of two 64-bit fields containing absolute
references, to the symbol itself and to a char array containing
its name, respectively.

When we build the same configuration with KASLR enabled, we end
up with an additional ~192 KB of relocations in the .init section,
i.e., one 24 byte entry for each absolute reference, which all need
to be processed at boot time.

Given how the struct kernel_symbol that describes each entry is
completely local to module.c (except for the references emitted
by EXPORT_SYMBOL() itself), we can easily modify it to contain
two 32-bit relative references instead. This reduces the size of
the __ksymtab section by 50% for all 64-bit architectures, and
gets rid of the runtime relocations entirely for architectures
implementing KASLR, either via standard PIE linking (arm64) or
using custom host tools (x86).

Note that the binary search involving __ksymtab contents relies
on each section being sorted by symbol name. This is implemented
based on the input section names, not the names in the ksymtab
entries, so this patch does not interfere with that.

Given that the use of place-relative relocations requires support
both in the toolchain and in the module loader, we cannot enable
this feature for all architectures. So make it dependent on whether
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS is defined.
