[PATCH] modpost: document the use of struct section_check.
From: Quentin Casasnovas
Date: Mon Apr 13 2015 - 04:55:38 EST
struct section_check is used as a generic way of describing what
relocations are authorized/forbidden when running modpost. This commit
tries to describe how each field is used.

+ * targetting sections in this array (white-list). Can be empty.

+ * @symbol_white_list: Do not match a relocation to a symbol in this list
