James Morse 363bbb5008 module: Expose module_init_layout_section()
commit 2abcc4b5a6 upstream.

module_init_layout_section() choses whether the core module loader
considers a section as init or not. This affects the placement of the
exit section when module unloading is disabled. This code will never run,
so it can be free()d once the module has been initialised.

arm and arm64 need to count the number of PLTs they need before applying
relocations based on the section name. The init PLTs are stored separately
so they can be free()d. arm and arm64 both use within_module_init() to
decide which list of PLTs to use when applying the relocation.

Because within_module_init()'s behaviour changes when module unloading
is disabled, both architecture would need to take this into account when
counting the PLTs.

Today neither architecture does this, meaning when module unloading is
disabled there are insufficient PLTs in the init section to load some
modules, resulting in warnings:

Instead of duplicating module_init_layout_section()s logic, expose it.
