Commit Message

If modpost fails to load a symbol dump file, it cannot check unresolved
symbols, hence module dependency will not be added. Nor CRCs can be added.

Currently, external module builds check only $(objtree)/Module.symvers,
but it should check files specified by KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS as well.

Move the warning message from the top Makefile to scripts/Makefile.modpost
and print the warning if any dump file is missing.
