Fix symbol versioning on architectures with symbol prefixes. Although the build was free from warnings the actual modules still wouldn't load as the ____versions table contained unprefixed symbol names, which were being compared against the prefixed symbol names when checking the symbol versions.
This is fixed by modifying modpost to add the symbol prefix to the ____versions table it outputs (Modules.symvers still contains unprefixed symbol names). The check_modstruct_version() function is also fixed as it checks the version of the unprefixed "module_layout" symbol which would no longer work.
