Will Deacon 069e1c07c1 module: Fix link failure due to invalid relocation on namespace offset
Commit 8651ec01da ("module: add support for symbol namespaces.")
broke linking for arm64 defconfig:

  | lib/crypto/arc4.o: In function `__ksymtab_arc4_setkey':
  | arc4.c:(___ksymtab+arc4_setkey+0x8): undefined reference to `no symbol'
  | lib/crypto/arc4.o: In function `__ksymtab_arc4_crypt':
  | arc4.c:(___ksymtab+arc4_crypt+0x8): undefined reference to `no symbol'

This is because the dummy initialisation of the 'namespace_offset' field
in 'struct kernel_symbol' when using EXPORT_SYMBOL on architectures with
support for PREL32 locations uses an offset from an absolute address (0)
in an effort to trick 'offset_to_pointer' into behaving as a NOP,
allowing non-namespaced symbols to be treated in the same way as those
belonging to a namespace.

Unfortunately, place-relative relocations require a symbol reference
rather than an absolute value and, although x86 appears to get away with
this due to placing the kernel text at the top of the address space, it
almost certainly results in a runtime failure if the kernel is relocated
dynamically as a result of KASLR.

Rework 'namespace_offset' so that a value of 0, which cannot occur for a
valid namespaced symbol, indicates that the corresponding symbol does
not belong to a namespace.
