The linker script scripts/module.lds.S specifies that all input
__klp_objects sections should be consolidated into an output section of
the same name, and start/stop symbols should be created to enable
scripts/livepatch/init.c to locate this data.
This start/stop pattern is not ideal for modules because the symbols are
created even if no __klp_objects input sections are present.
Consequently, a dummy __klp_objects section also appears in the
resulting module. This unnecessarily pollutes non-livepatch modules.
Instead, since modules are relocatable files, the usual method for
locating consolidated data in a module is to read its section table.
This approach avoids the aforementioned problem.
The klp_modinfo already stores a copy of the entire section table with
the final addresses. Introduce a helper function that
scripts/livepatch/init.c can call to obtain the location of the
__klp_objects section from this data.
