Subject: [PATCH] modpost: add a helper to get data pointed by a symbol
When CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS is enabled, the value of __crc_* is not
an absolute value, but the address to the CRC data embedded in the
.rodata section.
Getting the data pointed by the symbol value is somewhat complex.
Split it out into a new helper, sym_get_data().
I will reuse it to refactor namespace_from_kstrtabns() in the next
commit.

Subject: [PATCH] modpost: refactor namespace_from_kstrtabns() to not hard-code
section name
Currently, namespace_from_kstrtabns() relies on the fact that
namespace strings are recorded in the __ksymtab_strings section.
Actually, it is coded in include/linux/export.h, but modpost does
not need to hard-code the section name.
Elf_Sym::st_shndx holds the index of the relevant section. Using it is
a more portable way to get the namespace string.
Make namespace_from_kstrtabns() simply call sym_get_data(), and delete
the info->ksymtab_strings .
While I was here, I added more 'const' qualifiers to pointers.
