modpost: detect section mismatch for R_ARM_{MOVW_ABS_NC,MOVT_ABS}

For ARM defconfig (i.e. multi_v7_defconfig), modpost fails to detect
some types of section mismatches.

  [test code]

    #include <linux/init.h>

    int __initdata foo;
    int get_foo(void) { return foo; }

It is apparently a bad reference, but modpost does not report anything.

The test code above produces the following relocations.

  Relocation section '.rel.text' at offset 0x200 contains 2 entries:
   Offset     Info    Type            Sym.Value  Sym. Name
  00000000  0000062b R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC 00000000   .LANCHOR0
  00000004  0000062c R_ARM_MOVT_ABS    00000000   .LANCHOR0

Currently, R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC and R_ARM_MOVT_ABS are just skipped.

Add code to handle them. I checked arch/arm/kernel/module.c to learn
how the offset is encoded in the instruction.

The referenced symbol in relocation might be a local anchor.
If is_valid_name() returns false, let's search for a better symbol name.
