Explicitly allow-list those in scripts/mod/modpost.c, too. They are needed for the amdgpu in-kernel floating point support.

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.

Check section mismatch to __meminit* only when CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=n. With this change, the linker script and modpost become simpler, and we can get rid of the __ref annotations from the memory hotplug code.
