module: set ksymtab/kcrctab* section addresses to 0x0
These __ksymtab*/__kcrctab* sections currently have non-zero addresses. Non-zero section addresses in a relocatable ELF confuse GDB and it ends up not relocating all symbols when add-symbol-file is used on modules which have exports. The kernel's module loader does not care about these addresses, so let's just set them to zero.
