[ARM] 5428/1: Module relocation update for R_ARM_V4BX

Browse Source 
It would seem when building kernel modules with modern binutils
(required by modern GCC) for ARM v4T targets (specifically observed
with the Samsung 24xx SoC which is an 920T) R_ARM_V4BX relocations
are emitted for function epilogues.

This manifests at module load time with an "unknown relocation: 40"
error message.

The following patch adds the R_ARM_V4BX relocation to the ARM kernel
module loader. The relocation operation is taken from that within the
binutils bfd library.
