This add the kbuild infrastructure that will allow architectures to emit
vmlinux symbol CRCs as 32-bit offsets to another location in the kernel
where the actual value is stored. This works around problems with CRCs
being mistaken for relocatable symbols on kernels that self relocate at
runtime (i.e., powerpc with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y)
For the kbuild side of things, this comes down to the following:
- introducing a Kconfig symbol MODULE_REL_CRCS
- adding a -R switch to genksyms to instruct it to emit the CRC symbols
as references into the .rodata section
- making modpost distinguish such references from absolute CRC symbols
by the section index (SHN_ABS)
- making kallsyms disregard non-absolute symbols with a __crc_ prefix

$type_struct_full and friends are only used by the restructuredText
backend, because it needs to separate enum/struct/typedef/union from
the name of the type. However, $type_struct is *also* used by the rST
backend. This is confusing.
This patch replaces $type_struct's use in the rST backend with a new
$type_fallback; it modifies $type_struct so that it can be used in the
rST backend; and creates regular expressions like $type_struct
for enum/typedef/union, for use in all backends.
Note that, compared to $type_*_full, in the new regexes $1 includes both
the "kind" and the name (before, $1 was pretty much a constant).
