Uwe Kleine-König f177cd0c15 modpost: Don't let "driver"s reference .exit.*
Drivers must not reference functions marked with __exit as these likely
are not available when the code is built-in.

There are few creative offenders uncovered for example in ARCH=amd64
allmodconfig builds. So only trigger the section mismatch warning for
W=1 builds.

The dual rule that drivers must not reference .init.* is implemented
since commit 0db2524523 ("modpost: don't allow *driver to reference
.init.*") which however missed that .exit.* should be handled in the
same way.

Thanks to Masahiro Yamada and Arnd Bergmann who gave valuable hints to
find this improvement.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
