Series [1/5] modpost: fix undefined behavior of is_arm_mapping_symbol() | expand

mod->name is set to the ELF filename with the suffix ".o" stripped.

The current code calls strdup() and free() to manipulate the string,
but a simpler approach is to pass new_module() with the name length
subtracted by 2.

Also, check if the passed filename ends with ".o" before stripping it.

The current code blindly chops the suffix

    tmp[strlen(tmp) - 2] = '\0'

but it will cause buffer under-run if strlen(tmp) < 2;
