PATCH [1/1]: Don't return symbol lables in init sections after they have been freed

[Robin Getz <rgetz@blackfin.uclinux.org>]

From: Robin Getz <rgetz@blackfin.uclinux.org>

Today, when module names are looked up, we do not qualify them (check to see 
if the init section is still active or not). This can lead to problems when 
kernel modules get loaded into the same address that the kernel init section 
(or other module's init section was at). We sometimes return the old / no 
lomnger there 

This leads to bogus OOPS messages, and developers wasting their time looking 
for problems (in the kernel init section) where there are none (since it was 
a module).

This patch qualifies the addresses, to make sure the addresses are still valid 
before label/offset.
