[PATCH 04/10] modpost: remove more symbol patterns from the section check whitelist

[Masahiro Yamada]

These symbol patterns were whitelisted to allow them to reference to
functions with the old __devinit and __devexit annotations.

We stopped doing this a long time ago, for example, commit 6f039790510f
("Drivers: scsi: remove __dev* attributes.") remove those annotations
from the scsi drivers.

Keep *_ops and *_console, otherwise they will really cause section
mismatch warnings.
