modpost: fix potential segmentation fault for addend_i386_rel()
This may not be a practical problem, but the second pass of ARCH=i386 modpost causes segmentation fault if the -s option is not passed. MODPOST 12 modules Segmentation fault (core dumped) make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:94: __modpost] Error 139 make[1]: *** [Makefile:1339: modules] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... The segmentation fault occurs when section_rel() is called for vmlinux, which is untested in regular builds. The cause of the problem is reloc_location() returning a wrong pointer for ET_EXEC object type. In this case, you need to subtract sechdr->sh_addr, otherwise it would get access beyond the mmap'ed memory. Add sym_get_data_by_offset() helper to avoid code duplication.
