2.6.25 and DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH

[Adrian Bunk]

Hi Sam,

although DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH allows to also find exotig things like 
finding bugs only present when using gcc < 3.4 and CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n at 
the same time, the problem is that we print
    WARNING: modpost: Found 13 section mismatch(es).
    To see full details build your kernel with:
    'make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y'
but CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH is not offered in 2.6.25.

The options seem to be:
- going back to the worse but for most practical purposes usable
  warnings in 2.6.24
- don't show these warnings during modpost for 2.6.25
