modpost: Add .irqentry.text to OTHER_SECTIONS

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2102118

commit 7912405643a14b527cd4a4f33c1d4392da900888 upstream.

The compiler can fully inline the actual handler function of an interrupt
entry into the .irqentry.text entry point. If such a function contains an
access which has an exception table entry, modpost complains about a
section mismatch:

  WARNING: vmlinux.o(__ex_table+0x447c): Section mismatch in reference ...

  The relocation at __ex_table+0x447c references section ".irqentry.text"
  which is not in the list of authorized sections.

Add .irqentry.text to OTHER_SECTIONS to cure the issue.
