Permit .GCC-command-line sections in modules.  Otherwise modpost says things
like:

WARNING: drivers/mtd/chips/map_ram.o (.GCC-command-line): unexpected non-allocatable section.
Did you forget to use "ax"/"aw" in a .S file?
Note that for example <linux/init.h> contains
section definitions for use in .S files.

Ideally, we'd check that it was only the "set" function which was __init,
and that the permissions were r/o.  But that's a little hard.

sec2annotation returns malloc'ed buffer directly to printf as an argument.

This patch makes modpost able to process object files with more than
64k sections. Needed for huge kernel builds (allyesconfig, for example)
with -ffunction-sections. 64k sections handling is covered, for example,
by this document:

It just hit me.
It's the offset calculation in reloc_location() which overflows:
        return (void *)elf->hdr + sechdrs[section].sh_offset +
               (r->r_offset - sechdrs[section].sh_addr);

E.g. for the first rodata r entry:
r->r_offset < sechdrs[section].sh_addr
and the expression in the parenthesis produces 0xFFFFFFE0 or something
equally wise.
