cnic: Fix symbol_put_addr() panic on ia64.

Browse Source 
When the cnic driver tries to grab a symbol from bnx2 when bnx2 is
running init code, symbol_get() will succeed but symbol_put_addr()
will hit BUG() a moment later.  module_text_address() fails because
bnx2 is still in init code.

This is fixed by using symbol_put() instead which does the exact
opposite of symbol_get().
