Subject: [PATCH v2 9/9] module: Reorder functions

Introduce a new config option to allow modules to be re-ordered
by function. This option can be enabled independently of the
kernel text KASLR or FG_KASLR settings so that it can be used
by architectures that do not support either of these features.
This option will be selected by default if CONFIG_FG_KASLR is
selected.

If a module has functions split out into separate text sections
(i.e. compiled with the -ffunction-sections flag), reorder the
functions to provide some code diversification to modules.
