The issue appears to be that the files in arch/s390/purgatory are
always built without debugging information, even though they include
code that uses EXPORT_SYMBOL.
I suspect the correct solution here is to ignore the object files in
this directory when calculating modversions. The quick patch below
fixes the build issue for me. Masahiro, does this look reasonable to
you?
