[PATCH v2 5/7] modpost: squash report_sec_mismatch() and remove enum mismatch

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Mon Sep 26 2022 - 16:42:36 EST


Now report_sec_mismatch() prints the same warning message for all
possible cases. (fatal() is just a sanity check for unreachable code.)

Squash it into default_mismatch_handler().

enum mismatch is no longer used. Remove it as well.
