For arm, if the CONFIG_ARM_UNWIND is open, when insmod a module,
the init section add to the unwind_table, the code path as follow:
        load_module
        --->post_relocation
        ------->module_finalize
        ----------->maps[ARM_SEC_INIT].txt_sec = s
        ----------->unwind_table_add

Later if load_module success, the init section's memory will be
vfree, the code path as follow:
        load_module
        --->do_init_module
        ------->freeinit->module_init = mod->init_layout.base
        ------->schedule_work(&init_free_wq)
        ----------->do_free_init
        --------------->vfree(freeinit->module_init)

But after the init section's had been vfree, but it's unwind_table
is not removed.

The issue as follow:
When insmod module A, the system alloc the "Addr1" for it's init
text section, and add it to the unwind_table list, after insmod
success, the "Addr1" would be vfreed.
Unfortunately, later insmod module B, the system alloc the "Addr1"
for it's text section, and add it to the unwind_table list, too.
And we dumpstack in module B, we may get a incorrect backtrace.
