Subject: [PATCH 05/11] dyndbg: reverse module.callsite walk in cat control

Walk the module's vector of callsites backwards; ie N..0.  This
"corrects" the backwards appearance of a module's prdbg vector when
walked 0..N.  I think this is due to linker mechanics, which I'm
inclined to treat as immutable, and the order is fixable in display.

No functional changes.

Combined with previous commit, which reversed tables-list, we get:

  :#> head -n7 /proc/dynamic_debug/control
  # filename:lineno [module]function flags format
  init/main.c:1179 [main]initcall_blacklist =_ "blacklisting initcall %s\012"
  init/main.c:1218 [main]initcall_blacklisted =_ "initcall %s blacklisted\012"

  init/main.c:1429 [main]run_init_process =_ "    %s\012"
