ARM: 6766/1: Thumb-2: Reflect ARM/Thumb-2 configuration in module vermagic
Loading Thumb-2 modules into an ARM kernel or vice-versa isn't guaranteed to work safely, since the kernel is not interworking- aware everywhere. This patch adds "thumb2" to the module vermagic when CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL is enabled, to help avoid accidental loading of modules into the wrong kernel.
