[PATCH] modules: prevent overriding of symbols
Ensure that an exported symbol does not already exist in the kernel or in some other module's exported symbol table. This is done by checking the symbol tables for the exported symbol at the time of loading the module. Currently this is done after the relocation of the symbol.
