Ok. Not every object, but every object file which includes module.h.

I've only updated the x86 linker script, since the other archs'
compile will break as soon as they set CONFIG_MODULES=y (there are 40
linker scripts in the tree, and I don't want to patch them all again).

You now get:
ext2: version magic 'non-SMP,preempt,gcc-2.95' != kernel 'SMP,preempt,gcc-2.95'

Thanks!
Rusty.

Name: Module Sanity Check
Author: Rusty Russell
Status: Tested on 2.5.56

D: Stores a section in each object, for SMP, PREEMPT and compiler
D: version (spinlocks change size on UP with gcc major, at least).
D: This was Linus' suggestion. Also printks on modules with common
D: section (becoming an FAQ for third-party modules).
