objtool: Check that module init/exit function is an indirect call target
Some out-of-tree modules still do not use module_init() / module_exit()
macros and simply create functions with magic names init_module() and
cleanup_module() instead. As a result, these functions are not recognized
as indirect call targets by objtool and such module fails to load into an
IBT enabled kernel.
This old way is not even documented any more but it is cleaner to issue
a warning than to let the module fail on load without obvious reason.
