kbuild: kill false positives from section mismatch warnings for powerpc

[Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>]

Just pushed following patch out to kbuild.git
It made ppc64 happy here.

For an allmodconfig for ppc64 we are down at 48 warnings, excluding
fixes applied in -mm so it goes in the right direction.

    kbuild: kill false positives from section mismatch warnings for powerpc
    
    Building an allmodconfig kernel for ppc64 revealed a number of false
    positives - originally reported by Andrew Morton.
    This patch removes most if not all false positives for ppc64:
    
    Section .opd
    The .opd section contains function descriptors at least for ppc64.
    So ignore it for .init.text (was ignored for .exit.text).
    See description of function descriptors here:
    http://www.linuxbase.org/spec/ELF/ppc64/PPC-elf64abi-1.7.html
    
    Section .toc1
    ppc64 places some static variables in .toc1 - ignore the.
    
    Section __bug_tabe
    BUG() and friends uses __bug_table. Ignore warnings from that section.
    
    Module parameters are placed in .data.rel for ppc64, for adjust pattern to
    match on section named .data*
    
    Tested with gcc: 3.4.0 and binutils 2.15.90.0.3
