    module: make MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX into a CONFIG option · 9e1b9b80

    The next commit will require the use of MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX in
    .tmp_exports-asm.S.  Currently it is mixed in with C structure
    definitions in "asm/module.h".  Move the definition of this arch option
    into Kconfig, so it can be easily accessed by any code.
    
    This also lets modpost.c use the same definition.  Previously modpost
    relied on a hardcoded list of architectures in mk_elfconfig.c.
    
    A build test for blackfin, one of the two MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX archs,
    showed the generated code was unchanged.  vmlinux was identical save
    for build ids, and an apparently randomized suffix on a single "__key"
    symbol in the kallsyms data).
