This change allows growing struct kernel_symbol without wasting bytes to alignment. It also concretized the alignment of ksymtab entries if relative references are used for ksymtab entries. struct kernel_symbol was already implicitly being aligned to the word size, except on x86_64 and m68k, where it is aligned to 16 and 2 bytes, respectively. As far as I can tell there is no requirement for aligning struct kernel_symbol to 16 bytes on x86_64, but gcc aligns structs to their size, and the linker aligns the custom __ksymtab sections to the largest data type contained within, so setting KSYM_ALIGN to 16 was necessary to stay consistent with the code generated for non-ASM EXPORT_SYMBOL(). Now that non-ASM EXPORT_SYMBOL() explicitly aligns to word size (8), KSYM_ALIGN is no longer necessary. In case of relative references, the alignment has been changed accordingly to not waste space when adding new struct members. As for m68k, struct kernel_symbol is aligned to 2 bytes even though the structure itself is 8 bytes; using a 4-byte alignment shouldn't hurt. I manually verified the output of the __ksymtab sections didn't change on x86, x86_64, arm, arm64 and m68k. As expected, the section contents didn't change, and the ELF section alignment only changed on x86_64 and m68k. Feedback from other archs more than welcome.
